DannoSupra Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Well as some of you know, engine is out of my Supra and im in the middle of rebuilding for Single Turbo At the same time, its having a respray. But i can't decide on a colour. Its going to have the proper job, doors, bonnet, bumpers, front wings, windows etc off to spray Im in between Jet Black, Candy Red or Blue It'll have a Carbon Bonnet, Carbon DoLuck Mouth, Carbon TRD Fin with Carbon SideCaps. So i need something that'll look good with Carbon I quite like White with those carbon goodies Any Suggerstions, Pics etc? Cheers Guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Black Dan! That Supra looks awesome to start with in Black. Can't you have it done with some subtle flake in it? Candy Red is also lovely! H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Candy red and blue is nice but over done now to be honest. Black is classy and timeless. What about white? A nice contrast to that carbon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2o2 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 what about one of those dark gunmetal colours , looks almost black sometimes . Or honda do a colour "pirates black" i think , it has some dark purple through it , looks class too . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannoSupra Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 Are you thinking of Dimma Black by Honda? I dont want anything with a Flake/Glitter, not too keen I really like this colour - http://www.megaboost.co.uk/supra/photos/candyred-supra.jpg Is there such a thing as a Candy Black?

SilverSoop Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 You think it will look good in black with those Carbon Goodies? I really cant picture it How about a candy gold colour?? Believe me, that'll look nice with some carbon goodies lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Are you aware that any 'dings' with a candy paint will require a full respray? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannoSupra Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 OK, i think ive gone off Candy Paint :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSoop Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 OK, i think ive gone off Candy Paint :D Ok, what about a "chrome type finish" in gold or a more traditional metallic style?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mattsupra Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 keep it black but put a candy red over the top so its like a really dark red but black if you get what i mean ? (probably not lol) it would look similar to dark cherry red awsome colour matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SOUPRAMAN Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I'd say oem anthracite. It would look great w/ all that carbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul mac Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 when doing a colour change i chose to stick to an off the shelf colour from a production car (Citroen) and boy am i glad i resisted all these candys, flips and one offs etc, you will inevitably pick up some knocks and scratchs, with a widely available colour you can touch up and make the scratch virtually invisible (only you would know where it is), with all these "special" colours yes you will have an original colour but what will you do when you scratch it, re-spray the whole car ?, my advise would be to have a mooch round Halfords and pick a colour, as long as its not close to Mr T's stock colours you will still have something reasonably original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razza Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Stock Toyota Green:cool: might look ok with the carbon parts... And pretty damn rare:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannoSupra Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 I was thinking like a Piano Jet Black, then a hint of green or purple in the paint, so when the sun hits it it'll look awsome... not glitter, like a shade/shimmer And as some say, cant have it too rare cos if something does happen, then the bodyshop wont be able to match the colour Didn't Ford do a nice black/purple - Aubergine?!
