Hi huys
this is my car as it stands  Now my brother is willing to do a full body re-spray, He used to do this as a job, The question is! what colour? I llike white cos it stands out from the crowd, but its just too much effort to keep pretty. I considered black but its too common, Can you guys throw some colours & idealy pics of cars that have non standard paint work, Btw i have many plans for this including Body kit & alloys , so its not just going to be standard as is now Cheers All |

would wait until you are ready to put the kit on (as in have it also) so that it can get sprayed with the car. i would say go with something like a pearl blue or silver, but that's just me... i would recommend a pearl white, but you don't want white.

Yeah the body kit will be on first  thats something im looking into also dont have a clue where to start with that, so many to choose from.Also interesting, Pearl Blue is up near the top of my fav colours stands out an looks real nice.

Black with a green pearl
 As for the kit, I would just go for the spats and splitters instead of a big ugly kit like the vielside (just my opinion) |

x2 on pressure2's color. That blue is sick. I would rather go Black with gold rims and gold badges. But when I get my car painted I'm going to keep mine white as is. Yes its a pain to keep pretty, but if you love her its all worth it.

in reality, its all about what YOU ultimately want.
when i have a customer that comes in that likes white, but wants somthing more, i usually suggest somthing to make the white "pop" a bit more, perhaps some blue pearl or somthing like that in the base, which gives the white a more "icey" look, without changing the color too much.. btw, thanks to the other guys for the props on the color of the car. its toyota 8L5 (alternate #2) with a few extras thrown in, to suit our taste a bit more. since your bro will be spraying the car, perhaps a few "test panels" would be a good idea. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
