ok. so i feel like repainting my car once again. this time im going to make some more mods. i want to shave the handles and get some new side skirts and so forth but i dont know if i should just repaint the parts that need to be painted or should i go all out and get a new color? what do yall think? is my current color fine or should i just go all out and get a new color.

if i do another color its going to be either white, or another shade of purple, or some chameleon color. white would be cool but wouldnt that be to much white?

anyone know where i can go and look at paint codes on the net. i dont feel like running by the paint shop.

 

white would be 2 much white, i would go for a titanium color or maybe an orange, but u also got to take into consideration your engine bay, are u gonna get the whole thing painted?

 

sup man, as a suggestion, why don't you stay with the current color but do something in white... I don't know something, instead of graphics just do it in white, that way you save some flow and you don't have to go all out and do door jambs and engine bay... or maybe some new chromalusion i've seen that goes from white to something else, maybe it wasn't white, can't remember, or some metallic silver to purple??? just a suggestion

 

i painted the engine bay black. my car was red. i painted it black because it looks better and that way i dont have to repaint it if i want to repaint the car (gosh im smart) LoL

orange is to far out there. i want something nice but also to stand out. i really like the color of the cuda pictures but i think it was the camera or the computer because ive seen the pictures blue and ive seen them flourecent purple. i like the purple color

 

batman. i was thinking about doing something like that like the top half of my car silver or white but then i forgot that my hood is black.

so technically it wouldnt look ok if i did that. maybe some ghost patterns. maybe do some white graphics? i dunno. i try and try and i cant draw anything that really looks good on a tib.

 

that's right you have the CF hood too, well I can tell you it would look badass if you make whatever you think about mesh into your CF hood, I mean, you can paint CF that's no problem, so if you can find a color scheme anything will mesh with the CF, except WHITE, that's the reason Random got rid of his, just doesn't blend with it...

 

yeah...im trying to think really really hard.
i just went to teh body shop who painted my car and asked them the price on shaving my handles. they said like 300 for labor. dang. heres what i have to do.

repaint the trunk lid (damn thieves trying to steal ****)

take a few little dings out on the rear quarter panel

shave the handles

repaint the front bumper....

so i mean i mine as well get the whole car repainted. i think i might just stay with the same color and find a scheme like a ghost scheme or something. they said they can hook it up i just have to draw it.

 

Can't go wrong with Ghost patterns or ghost flames. I've done lots of paint jobs like that, and I also have shaved TONS of door handles. I've always used kits from Autoloc. Their site is www.autoloc.com Get the 50 pound pull kit since you'll be using it every day. Also, make sure that who ever does the shaving, installs a hidden emergency popper button somewhere on the car. That will be your fail safe feature in case the battery on your remote dies. Good luck!

 

well im going to install the poppers. the shop is just going to shave it and paint. i saw the kit but it runs like 300 bux. you know anywhere else that sells it pretty cheap and can i hook it up to my existing alarm remote?

ghost patterns are going to be cool. but should i go lighter or darker then my current color?

I'd go with a gunmetal/dark gray/silver if you have a CF hood. And if you get ghost flames, should just try to get vinyl graphics just in case you get tired of the design.
