Idea!, from a dream Options

[SeverX13]

Some of you know my car is in the process of being painted. Well, i had this dream last night that my roof was a color shift from orange to black, mostly black. And the same goes for the trunk. Now my car was originally going to be orange with a zyclone CF hood. but now after this dream im thinkin about doing the roof and trunk a color shift into black.



any thoughts?


go or no go?

[m-i-m-m-]

Honestly, colour shifts aint my thing.. so i'd say hold back.
But of couse at the end of the day its your car, if you really like the idea go with it.

What an oxymoron huh, hold back/go with it all at the same time!

haha well what about just black instead of the black color shift?

If you're going with the c/f hood, then to have the roof an trunk black may look cool. Especially if you have dark tints.

Dunno. I prefer a simpler clean look, but it may work.

well idk i was playing Juiced 2 and made the gt-four orange with a CF and black roof and trunk. i thought it looked pretty sick.


idk yet i gotta talk to my body guy

Solid Black would look pretty good imo. Esp if theres carbon involved.

As long as doesn't throw the symmetry of the car off, and is offset well with another colour.
Thing about celica is it has quite delicate lines, so ya gotta be carefull, subtle!

i like it, i think its hot. Def would have to cf overlay the roof to pull that off, it can be done im praticing on a parts car this week

I was gunna do something similar to those pixs you got up, (but was talked out of it, lol.) but having the vert, it would have been the hood (stylish to have CF hood and a bright/hot color body paint) and then wrap my trunk lid as well...

But then went against it due to the heat of the fuzz in my local neighborhoods, just though it'd be too much of a beaken of trouble

I think it'd look pretty good...I too have contemplated doing a black cf hood and trunk lid w/ the black vert top, and a blue body, still might at some point. I'd say if you have the funds, go for it, looks nice imo.

CF wrapping your OEM stuff is cheap and easy. prob like $150... even if you dont have an acct with anyone, i'd imagine $150/material would be the worst of it @ list pricing.....

well how would i make sure it doesnt throw off the symmetry?

Basically by seeing what it looks like on a celica, which i hadn't before...
but looking at the juiced pics i'd say it would look pretty good!

What bout just the roof and trunk?

Not often you see it done... have a look in juiced nd see what it looks like.
Its always good to do something a lil different
