Elliot Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Howdy ho peeps Basicly, although silver is a great colour I'm going to get a new bodykit & re-spray (hopefully over xmas) I'm keeping the Carbon Fibre bonnet & CF Spoiler, but getting rid of the Toyota spats & skirts. Then I'm getting Veilside skirts & spats & probably Bomex nose. Now, what colour? I've always wanted gold, but I'm beginning to have doubts. I'm thinking of the Impreza blue or maybe yellow? I know there's quite a lot of nice blue Supes around and some very nice yellow ones, but I've seen both with the same kit combination & don't want to be too similar/steal their ideas! I just think maybe gold is a bit much unless you've got a widebody kit or running 2000 BHP (allegedly of course!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Quicksilver? Or a nice candy apple red maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getrag Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Here is pretty much that kit (except wing) in my fav colour: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getrag Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 With the CF bumper. Everyone knows this car, its gotta be one of the best looking examples: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliot Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 That is nice, Any more details on that car & where they got the work done etc? That's the same bonnet as mine, I think mine will look better with the spoiler I've got though:devil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salvatore Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Hey dood, this was the colour i was basing my respray on, got a slightly different shade to this, but still reckon its the bolox! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Have you see Nicks' car on here?? Looks just like the one above, only better. His web page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Blue has been done to death dude , try looking on the Rage site at some of the cheaper colours like shockwaves etc , or think of the more pastel colours like Merceded use .

Elliot Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 It might have been done to death, but it still looks great! The Rage site is great, but I think their paints a bit too much 'show car'. I wouldn't want to drive in case I chipped the paint as most of their paints I doubt you can get an exact match for touch-ups? (Don't they put different layers on etc?) No-one's said no to gold or yellow so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 I think silver looks best with carbon bits tbh. Otherwise candy apple red is the danglies, or SpectraFlair is a LOVELY thing to see on a car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 CA Red does look nice, but I've just read Matt Harwood's post about the nightmare it is if you need to repair anything. He reckons you're basicly looking at a complete respray. I need to check with my insurers to see what the difference will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one's said no to gold or yellow so far! A lot of the blues go over a coloured base , so you wont be touching those up either or just blowing them in !!! One of the best colours ive seen a supra in was Terry S's purple monster , that would defo be my choice . Dude:flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 That shows how much I know about painting! I thought blue would be nice and easy to touch up or whatever. What about gold Dude? Is that a 'relatively' simple one!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
