#1: paint colour ideas :D Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Fri May 06, 2011 8:16 am ---- just after some ideas to paint my car, i have a few colours in my head, i know its a while off before it gets painted etc but wanting to add a 2nd colour in engine bay etc before a new engine goes back in, and colour code bits inbetween the tedious body work lol
body work wise im going for basicly this..........
does using a manufacturers paint work out cheaper??

#16: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Fri May 06, 2011 1:57 pm ---- Matte black with orange bay and orange detailing on the inside
#17: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Fri May 06, 2011 2:05 pm ---- Vinyl wrapped. You could do almost anything then.
Get a picture of a dog holding a steering wheel and put it on the door so it looks like the dog is driving. Maybe a picture of an engine for on the bonnet, bumper and wings so it looks like its in the car.
Possibilities are endless.

Surely that's quite expensive ??
#20: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Fri May 06, 2011 2:24 pm ---- If I had a choice it would be Pearlescent Black and purple,
Shame it would cost more than the car brand new

lol, i might know a bloke will see what he says, want to get it running soon
#23: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: Uz, Location: No Man's LandPosted: Sun May 08, 2011 2:43 pm ---- I'm with Matt on this one but the new M3 Frozen Grey or Maybe Porsche Grey Black with A Red Bay & Detailing
You can't be serious, you wouldn't legally be allowed to drive it on the road. Pointless unless you came up with some other solution.
Red on gray looks like a winner. Black & yellow's smart too.
its an idea passed around my head yer i know the laws etc and there would poss be another solution to keep it legal yer. its just one of a few idea atm anyway,
like the red and gray colour idea
#29: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: Will180, Location: NewcastlePosted: Thu May 12, 2011 1:12 pm ---- how do you plan to put petrol in the car?
#30: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu May 12, 2011 1:30 pm ---- will be keeping normal fuel cap, but going to try make it smaller some how,
#31: Re: paint colour ideas :D Author: Lowercase, Location: East SussexPosted: Thu May 12, 2011 1:43 pm ---- at trax i saw a civic type r in like a flat gloss grey. wasnt a dark grey or anything. just light grey, no metalic, looked so fresh.
or perhaps like a vintage cream colour? more unique than just 'white'
