ya know, i was going to go with a dark teal or something, but the red/silver combo was recommended by the pinstriper. he does all the cars for the honda dealership that i got it from.
i would be happy for any suggestions and would redo it if i could find something that looked really snappy.......

Re: Worst looking winter hybrid contest.
Enzo would be rolling in his grave right now if he heard you say that.
I like the pinstripes, noticed them right off. Glad you didn't take the route like all the other robots. Dare to be different. If we had a :thumbsup: emoticon, you'd have it right now.

Re: Worst looking winter hybrid contest.
OK, color me naive, but I was just wondering why people are blanking out their license plates when posting these pictures? What is the security risk that I am oblivious to? You've got me worried that I shouldn't have posted my photo with the number and state "intact".
Hey, nice photos, Schwa... definitely some "yuck" value there.

Re: Worst looking winter hybrid contest.
Yes, a security risk. Some states you can get a persons name/address etc just from sending a note ($) to the DMV.

Re: Worst looking winter hybrid contest.
Oh, well, since my name is already posted, and my city, any of you can already look me up in the phone book. A lot easier than tracking me by license number. Maybe I should take my last name out of my profile, I guess I'll do that. I can't remember why I put it in.

Re: Worst looking winter hybrid contest.
Its not a big deal usualy, but I hang around car audio and civic forums where people tend to put lots of money in their cars and basicly provide a shopping list for thieves. I picked up the habbit there.
Some of the people on those types of boards will tend even go to the extreem of pulling their plates off at shows.
