I opted to not let them drill holes in the bumper for the plate bracket, so I'm using one of the tow hook plate mounts. That is as centered as it's going to get.

Very nice. Congratulations!!

Thanks for the photos.

I'm using this bracket, which allows the license plate to be centered without drilling into the front of the bumper.

I'm so jealous, you have an anthracite headliner. That's the last thing I need to complete my red/black makeover and it's rather expensive to add after the fact.

cagekicker · 05-06-2009, 10:47 PM

what a beautiful color.

SlickShift · 05-07-2009, 11:25 PM

Kinda makes me wish I got crimson and coral! It's beautiful!

RPM90 · 05-13-2009, 06:30 PM

I'll be going with crimson & terra. I haven't seen that combo on here, but I'll bet it will look great. The red on red is a bit much. I am surprised how nice it does look though.
Also, I think I'll do gray poplar. Should be a nice combo.
It'll be a while before I can post pics obviously.

IMO, Crimson and Terra clash something fierce. Crimson and Beige, Sanvannah, Lemon, Black or even Gray would be better. No to Coral and Terra. Terra has brown (tobacco) tones in it, not so good with red.

KeithLM · 05-13-2009, 09:58 PM

Crimson and Coral is a great combination. Coral is much more muted than Crimson, and it's one of the two-tone interiors. It's not to much red, and it looks real good together.

IMHO, the solid interiors are boring. Black is OK, but the rest are just blah. Th two-tone interiors are the best. I'm not sure how Terra would look in the Crimson though, or Lemon.

Red and coral - a daring choice.
The anthacite headliner keeps it all together.
Enjoy!

joeo · 05-17-2009, 07:38 PM

I'm definitely enjoying it! Thanks for the comments.
Had the first wash today.

joeo, your red interior looks sick with that Crimson Red!

Really clean ride, bro!

Mega Man · 05-17-2009, 08:07 PM

Lookin' through this thread, CRIMSON RED is SICK!

It's a really cool exclusive color to this car! If I wasn't so much of a plain Jane, I would've gotten a red one, especially after seeing this thread!

twinturbo135i · 05-17-2009, 08:44 PM

here's a recent pic I took of my Crimson Red baby with aftermarket halo lighting.

Mega Man · 05-17-2009, 08:48 PM

I am jealous of you all. Your lights look good!

One day all will realize that Crimson and Coral is the best color combination.
