What Colour Would You Paint Your Car?

[lowey22]

I might be getting a respray soon as a mate can do it for me for only the cost of the paint. So I was just going to keep it the same colour (white!), but then I got to thinking I could have any colour I wanted. I do like white a lot though :D

So I as wondering what colour you would paint your car if you could have any colour you wanted? Also if you have any suggestions for me, I'd be keen to hear them.

Either White with a blue fine metallic fleck in it, a goldy orange or a black with red and blue fine metallic flecks.

how the car looks in the end depends on how good your mate is with prepping... i wouldn't get a full respray just because it is free. i'm no expert but generally you get what you pay for. I'd just keep it white IMO, maybe go with some gold or blue flakes on top.

Definately PINK .... for me :)

what he said. but on saying that we got mt girlfriends bike re painted by racepaint and got it done hot pink with blue perl and a week latter we saw a gemini with the same paint job looks mad and depending on the light its hot pink (daytime), purple (underlights) and its goes another colour sometimes aswell. and ive seen an astra near me thats painted hot pink and must say it looks great.

Looks a bit like Holden's Cosmo Purple on the VY II

[cyclonic]

Hmm purple with a camileon flip to red...
Or Blue with a camelion flip to aqua

Or a white metallic.

[CJB]

Orange. General Lee orange. Lowey, why not just keep it white? I reckon white cars look hot.

btw crispy, u have such great advice



thanks lowey :p

haha, yeah man, I like your car in white cos it looks good with the tail lights and wheels.

Plus, I think white cars are hot. Never use to, but I love them now. I want a white car.

actually, Holden told me the stock black sapphire had blue in it - when I had the defect in the paint, there were like aruba blue flakes in it... the guy told me because the base of the black paint is blue.


Thats just what Holden said - as we know, they are known to NOT know what the hell they are on about. :rolleyes:

hmm strange, definately no blue in mine.

[EL BURITO]

red and black with a white pin stripes

[xplosv57]

Canary Yellow!! Itll look awesome yellow with turbo tinted lights and dark windows!! Thats my opinion anyways!!

[lowey22]

I thought about yellow, would be different. Might look too much like a falcon or a monaro?

But it looks like the cheap respray may not happen, my mate has been sent to Timor, minimum of 3 months i think.
