Title: Colour Suggestions...
Post by: Agreeable Slick on 08 July 2005, 20:41: Hiy guys and gals,

I have been having a mass re think about everything to do with my car and have decided to start saving for a re-spray of the shell of my car, as its losing its deep red glow massively in this bleeding southern sun. :cry: :cry:

Thats her, and i would like a few suggestions of colours and if possibly pictures so i can sample the colour and see what the car looks like in photoshop.

Cheers in advance.

What about Fiat sprint blue. BMW Estoril blue, Ford imperial blue, errm... yeah any of them !?? :undecided:

The orange looks pretty good too though. Do you want something that'll stand out ?

Post by: G6dub on 11 July 2005, 16:38: my tip for the day......

Go into your local paint supplyers they can give you a load of colour card samples, stick them on your car, and look at it from different angles and distances also in sun and shade.
