My daughter.........

I begged her not to paint it pink..... Now, she's traded it back to good ole dad....

I can't drive it. 2 reasons - Pink is no color for this redneck, and check out across the street - every cop knows this car in the state (which pretty much means no fun, no way, no how)

Any ideas for a color scheme with pink as the base coat? It's a $3,500 paint job, so I don't want to completely repaint it - I'll probably end up selling it if I can't turn it around.

Gross... Maaco that thing.. You can't make it look good with pink involved.. I don't care what the paintjob cost, it ruined the car.. Just maaco over it.. The car looks nice other then that. White blends in the best and covers well..

real men drive pink =p

My friends 300zx.. really nice Maaco job.. But of course the car is all hooked up/modified so it works on it.. otherwise if his car was stock like yours, then yah it might not look very good..

theres always the option of making it a 100% track car. then who cares what color it is, seriously, as long as you rule on the track, then pink is a good color. other than that, slap her and make her pay for another paint job. (dont listen to me).
seriously, someone missed a spanking growing up.

peace

Make it an auto-x/drift car. You really have no other choice at this point.

my wife wants to paint her car this shde of pink:



I think you should just drive it, who cares. If you're worried about the cops knowing the car then don't do anything on the street.
