Thanks that is getting very close (how it looks on my monitor anyway) to what I think I am looking for. Now all I need to do is go out and find that colour in real life and get a paint code for it

How about white? i like white cars now, they say its the new black:D

 

I tried it in white (rubbish photshop effort though) and did not like it and I live at the end of a very muddy lane so it would always be dirty.

 

 

 

I think it would look good in black or dark grey but there are a lot of black Supra's

Hi Karolina, nice to hear from you. The first time I saw that car it was in the Max Power Magazine a couple of years ago and I fell in love with it, then last year, by chance I saw it in a car dealers show room and in a moment of madness brought it.

 

But times have moved on and that look is quite dated now, it is still a fantastic looking car (in my opinion) but now has a new front bumper because I broke the charge speed one on a track day and also has a new rear wing/spoiler because the charge speed one was a bit over the top (to say the least) but mainly because it was splitting in two.

 

It had a quick (cheap) paint job done on on the front bumper and rear boot lid (needed because had to fill in holes from chargespeed spoiler) and the rest of the paint work has a few scratches and stone chips so it makes sense to respray the whole car while it is at the repair shop.

 

It's a shame you did not get the chance to see it's full glory but if I am going spend a lot of money out then I want a colour I will still be happy with in 2 years time and by then I will be over 50 years old, which is probably way too old to be driving a bright orange monster :)
