400BHP Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 I'm thinking about having my car resprayed, I'm kinda fedup with silver I want something, well... rice! Anyone got any suggestions for a good colour, I'm thinking something noticeable (no stupid suggestions please) and a good guy to carry out the work, any one do this?? I take it, it can be resprayed in 2pac not that shit waterbased paint with built-in orange peel? Also a rough price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 hi chris, i'd just like to say water base aint the orange peel creating problem its the person using it,im a painter & use waterbase every day,if there is a bit of peel there is nothing that cant be flat n pol;ished out in the laquer to a glass finish, i might be interested in the job!!

Jake Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 I'm still agonizing about what colour to repaint mine and I've got it booked in with Dude to have the bodykit fitted and a full respray starting next Weds! I'd really like a different colour to red but I can't decide what colour to have...... and then there's all the issues with it being the orig colour under the bonnett and under the rear carpets etc etc. I'll most likely chicken out and go for red again.

Supragal Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Have to say usually I hate red but that shades actually OK. I have the issue with the under bonnet being a diff colour- can't be bothered to get the engine out to spray the bay so it'll have to stay like it for now. I'm going blue to purple so *hopefully* it won't be too noticable. As for the 2pac stuff- it's hard as nails from what I've seen, my mate had his golf sprayed in it and it's seriously solid, not a stone chip in it even after following a lorry that kicked up stones big enough to crack his windscreen.... You gotta go for a totally unique colour...took me ages to find one, but be aware that it's a nightmare then trying to match other bits to co-ordinate interiors and stuff.
