heck yes its mine! i decided on a 'snow camo' look for our tercel. i am so pumped for winter! it really needs a roof rack for our boards and mounts for some piaas or kcs! a custom or slightly modified rack from another car is in the near future!

{the passenger side of the car is still silver.. i got ahead of myself and didn't realize i needed more than one roll of tape!}

glad you dig it!

You could name the car Harvey Dent...

And "No," that is not a reference to any body dimples...

That's the best idea ever, for either a badly dented up Tercel or a Batman reference to a Tercel with a different paint scheme on either side (as is the case here). I love Batman. :mrgreen:

Copenhagenfiend, I love your snow camo. In my area, there are a lot of camo painted trucks and a few jeeps, but they are all either the sand or forest camo colors. You did an excellent job with the snow camo; I like it!

Looks good. Seems like I've seen another snow camo paint job around but it may have been on a web search.

That camo is dope. I love the lights on the roof rack....would love to work that in at some point, but I have too many damn mechanical/suspension/brake/wheel/interior tasks that need to be taken care of first:)

Wow~~!
Those both are amazing!
Synth, why do you get stopped/hassled by the PD? Certainly it's not a speed issue, as aerodynamics and Tercels are oxymorons.

Does it weird them out just seeing headlights and a roof rack driving down the road?

Snow camo is nice, though it would be cool to see one in digital camo.
