The First Ever Golden Fc3s In The World

I wanted to do a abnormal and ridiculously absurd color that would go with my fc.I am getting tired of my white color. The original color is red, then I painted it black, then white.. As a painter, I can do what ever color I want. I was thinking common colors red, black, or white,blue, or silver..But hey, everyone has those colors! But nobody has GOLD. Im using PPG Global BC 2 stage colors. Well anyways, heres the pictures...It goes in sequence

Definitely not my style, but you'll never find another one like it, that is for sure. So uh, why is it half widebodied?

I like it, you'll stand out for sure. That's one of the best ways to do it. Not bad for a DIY job. Good job mayn.

The 'Goldfinger' mobile. It turned out pretty nice man. Good luck eluding... Did you think about doing your rims with only gold accent? Like the very inner lip and the side of the spokes?

There is a gold or maybe it was bronze one in Japan. It was on the front cover of a Auto Mag last year I think it was.

Nice job!

hey guys, thanks for the comments.Ive been getting some really good and really bad props out on the strets lol. but it sure does turn heads during theday.
Yeah its diamond plaza. naw we dont usualy meet there , its just yesterday me and most my friends decided to.
damn so there is another gold fc.
Im trying to save up for front fenders and rear diffuser and maybe a gt wing. Its soo expensive. Who makes GT wings for fcs? its hard to find.
I also painted and created the rust colored miata in the picture.

Im doing sidejobs painting, cuz im going to start school soon, so if anyone around socal needs paint job leme know. I live in rowland heights.

Gold isn't my color, but if i had the know-how, and the equipment, my car would definetely be a new color every month, and not boring colors, crazy colors like this. Burnt orange, gold, dark purple, that would be fun!

I like the color of that Miata better... Also, the orange turn-signal lenses clash pretty badly--have you thought about tinting them?
