Pete Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Ok, here goes. Thinking of a respray. So far my favorites are: 1) Lovely blue (Like the MG XPower Blue) 2) XPower Grey (Love our ZR!) 3) Midnight Purple anyone else got any good suggestions? I've had a gunmetal Supra and it looked not as nice as my black one IMHO. Black is great, but a pain to keep clean and I'm bored of black now. Flips etc are probably a little to attention grabbing for normal use. Also - what on Earth do you do when it gets stone chipped!?

mr keef Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 i would have white just to be different:thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Plum Crazy Purple!!! Or yellow might work - depends how much attention you want!! Candy Apple Red if you can afford it and can afford touch ups. Trophy Blue is nice (or Ferrari blue as it's now called ). Already been done on here though!! Look into SpectraFlair as well, that'd be the colour I'd most want! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 I've woken up this morning for a like of Leons orange.... Not bothered wether someone else has done it before particularly - you can't be original all the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian R Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 always wondered what a Supe would look like in cyber green (volkswagon) colour the other half has a beetle in that colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 Aston Martin Green? You don't see many green Supras... would need a tan hide interior though... Will check out the local VW dealership for cyber green.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffleman Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I know exactly what colour I'm doing mine next year, but do you think I can find the paint codes ?!? Apparently, the paints are produced by BASF for Saleen exclusively. I admit sheepishly that I saw the colour on 2 Fast 2 Furious, however - it's a fappin' gorgeous colour and will be mine I was gonna go Candy, but the cost is horrendous and it isn't practical if you're gonna use the car regularly as matching is a nightmare. Here it is : http://www.users.totalise.co.uk/~mshosier/MSHPerf/Lizstick Red Saleen.JPG Chris Rocks on mkivsupra.co.uk has a similar colour which is apparently a Corvette red. The plan is : Add the Veilside Overfenders, eyebrows and rear bumper to my C1 skirts, nose and wing. Then full respray in the above Saleen Lizstick Red (IF I can find the paint codes). I know the Veilside kit is common, but you don't often see a Supe with the FULL kit inc. overfenders\rear bumper etc. I think it'll go loverly with my wheels too Matt PS. Me thinks this'll be a job courtesy of one Dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Personally I love a nice dark shiny blue (like the mondeo st200) with cream leather interior..... That's why I bought a red soop with black leather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supragal Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 How many purple supras are there? 4 maybe? Chris Rocks car is very nice. He's on here occasionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxygene Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I would love a paint job that you could create an infinitesimal colour range. A paint that was not a paint, but a static sensitive membrane that could change pigment with varying electrical charges. Just a thought mind you!!

Whitelightning Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I vote for a purple Supra meet !! lol At the next meet I propose that cars of a similar colour be pictured together for NEXT year's calenders. So vibrant colours for summer, earthy colours for autumn, crisp colurs for spring and all the white cars in winter lol ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 I thought gold - but it reminds me of the 70's and Austin Maxi etc...and Top Secret of course. Love that light Green!... I agree though - is it a bit too "street tuned"? Gotta think of the resale value. I've gone off purple. Far too common now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Or the new MGRover colour - Moonshine!! Looks good but never seen it in the metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 I'd go X-power Grey Pete, very classy Thing is...it'd match the missus MG ZR..not sure if that's a good thing, or a bad thing! Can't find mention of Moonshine colour anywhere on either Rover or MG site.. Is it one of the special personalised range they don't list in the brochure?
