Lotus Emira "Accent Highlight Pack" complete

[Adam Brouillard]

Ended up looking pretty much like the mockups I had posted over a year ago. The rear vent profiles are a little different. Also had a red pinstripe added around the bottom of the back and sides and switched out the stock yellow emblems for black. Now just need to get through the break-in miles.

Here is a mockup of some vinyls I'm planning on doing.

My instinct is "hard pass" on most cosmetics like this, but the hood accents and rear bumper vent 'extensions' definitely add drama in a way that doesn't detract. Don't think I'd do it on my Nimbus, but on a flashy color I do think it's a very interesting personalization!

Thanks, I posted on the facebook group as well and have been getting a very negative reaction. Quite surprising as everyone I had shown the car before and after really liked it. Maybe they were just being nice. I've done a good bit of design work in my life so I supposedly have good taste.

The idea started when I saw the Evija as in my opinion it just doesn't really even look finished without the accent pack. Too a lesser extent, I kinda felt the same way about the Emira.

Either way, I'm definitely happy with the results, just thought others would like it too.

Would you mind doing a version of mockups with the full Black Pack? It'd help me visualize if it looks good on my Emira. The YT video did pique my interest so far

I have no idea why but the mockups look good, the result (even though 1:1) somehow doesnt… sorry. But all that counts is you like it.

as per above, all that matters is that it’s your cup of tea

I think the rendering looks like gloss black accents but in real life it's more like satin dark gray.

Yes, the vinyls near the vents are satin black like on the f430
