I'm looking for pics of any custom painted first gens. ghost paint pearls anything. I'm trying to make sure that no one has tried what I'm about to try doing to my car. maybe after i get it done it might just take off. but I would appreciate any pics of custom painted first gens it would be kind of cool if this makes sticky status.

 

what ever you do, McLaren SLR green i mine

 

why dont you just say what youre going to do and we can tell you if we have seen it done?

 

I have a Flat Black FB and thats as custome as i wanna get.

but i have been toying with a Montego blue pearl mixed with a Mazda Blue Pearl.

 

keeping the L6 color code and you know the old fighter planes and bomber. lets say something like that. well im off to florida

 

heres mine in black

 

LOL I was thinking about doing the flat black like rob and big, everything

Then I decided that Im gonna do desert cammo on the rx7, all flat colors of course.

 

i think someone already did this. they did a WWI or WWII theme. i cant remember which. it was for sale a few months back.

 

well the shark and that they used on the old fighter planes. kind of ghosted in. its going to have gills and eyes and the mouth. me and my painter were looking at the front of the car and desided that it looked kind of like a shark under the front end. so thats what we are going to do

I'll try to get pics,tonihgt, of my 84 I just did with ghost pearl flames on hood and fenders.Kind of a far east meets american hot rod.

 

i thought it would be different than what people in my area are used to

 

im still trying to find my exsact color all i know im lookin for a
custom light blue glasurit peral paint.
like a white-light blue in sun reflection should suit the seven with its body kit and some polished enkies

 

Here's my paint.

It a purple base coat with a Cobalt Blue over the top...Looks really good in the sunlight, unfortunately both these pics are not really on the best angle to show the colour well...

WAS:12A can you post a pic of inside your car i wanna see what the view is like with that hatch. i was thinking of getting one just wasnt sure what id lose.

 

was:12a that car is awesome i thought about doing something like that but there is a corolla gts here in clarksville. so i had to come up with something else. Hey where did you find the rims and how much did you get them for im trying to find a nice set for mine the limited rims look really good on my car due to the color im going to do auto x with those rims because the are "stock" rims they are wider so but i need street rims that look good just to cruise around with that i can put nice wide soft tread the limited wheels will have a dot track tire with a 205/50 on them

 

Bugman:

the rims are 17 inch "Gold OM" rims by "Simmons". I don't think you guys get "Simmons" rims in the US...

Warwickben:

you don't lose much if any of your rear vision with the hatch. From my seating position if you look out the rear window its the same dimensions as the rear view vision mirror, ie what you see in the mirror is not obstructed by any part of the hatch. And because of the slots in the side of the hatch you can still see out of the rear side windows as well so you only loose a little of your vision there. All in all it doesn't effect my driving at all...

thanks man. i want to get the hatch for my car so bad. i dont have a rear deforster thewires are missing so this would work out better for me.

 

I heard a rumor that they don't make them new anymore, but it could be a rumor...

The lads at Mariah Motorsports are the people to call anyways...

Cam...

 

heres mine.... as with any custom paint, you have to see it in person to see the color and depth.

 

those are dunlop direzza's right? how do u like them? how do they perform?

 

I dont think they are direzza's, i have direzza's on my FB and they dont look quite like that

 

Original paint with black stripe from front to back on the bottom. When I repaint, I will be using this same scheme with nicer paint

 

What a beautiful FB!!
