I love that color! if my fb was worth a new paintjob, i would be torn between that and a lovely metallic navy.

IMHO, metallic orange just looks great with all the black trim our cars have.

onepointone 03-02-03 08:48 PM

thats a REALLY nice color. i wouldnt put it on my car, but its a really nice. cant wait to see it finished

Viperx7 03-02-03 08:58 PM

VERY NICE!!!

SoRRoW 03-03-03 03:48 AM

Get the shit done so we can see the finish product,

Its nice how most of the shit was taken off to be painted correctly,So how hard did it hit yoru pocket and how much paint did you think it took?

Did you do the engine bay?

Im thinking I should get a gallon of paint so I can have some left over for touch ups..

I like that color even more than when I saw it your first post! I see you also painted the window surrounds. I'm thinking of painting those as well when I paint mine. Can't wait to see it reassembled. Get a move on! :D

A mate did all the panel work and i supplied all the paint,

it was under $1000au

Badass color, man. It reminds me a little of Audi's India Red, which is possibly the awesomest non-standard car color ever.

81Rex6port13b 03-03-03 10:00 PM

:eek: wow thats a nice color, lets see it all to gether? what wheels will it sit on?

tubbymother 03-04-03 12:01 AM

are you going to add pin-stripping?

10sec rx7 03-04-03 12:04 AM

not sure on wheels yet, probably some aussie made wheels, like ROH or something like that!!

no pin striping at all, body is going to basically stay as you see it there.
