OK, Lets hear it,... What Do You Think Of My Cougar.... Reply #31 – July 12, 2009, 09:21:04 PM Back in the day, there was this chick around here that had what looked to be a custom Monte Carlo SS. Bigger wheels and tires, nice stance and maybe a warmed over motor, not sure. The eye catcher, though, was the paint. From the doors back, it was factory dark blue. Forward was a different story. The hood, fenders and front end were all primer, and there was a sticker or paint on one of the fenders about it being a hot rod (eg "street survivor" or something, don't remember what, exactly).Are you planning on going 'primer' as your final paint scheme? Semi gloss and flat finishes are so 2008 these days.Suggestions - I'd go with slightly bigger wheels and match the entire exhaust to the size of the tips, and if you're going to talk the talk with a scheme like that, make sure the car can walk the walk. Keeping that in mind, I do kinda like what you did with the trunk lettering. Quote Selected

Reply #43 – January 06, 2010, 09:24:59 PM Ok, you asked what we thought about the cougar and I'm going to be perfectly honest.It looks like .It looks like someone who doesn't know and doesn't care about anything that has to with cars has abused it badly.And then some other owner came and even made it worse.So yeah ... I hate it :)Can look good if you put effort in it! Quote Selected
