The last time i posted here was when i was looking for ideas for me new paint job. Well its done and i went with metallic copper as many whom pm'ed me. Interior is also copper. Whadya reckon?

Wow! That color is beautiful! It really has kind of like a copper chrome shine to it :) Very unique and has a very nice flare to it.

interesting color!

A friend of mine has almost the same color on his FD:

Previously it was Pearl Black (Glasurit Paint) and it was a bitch to mantain. Everytime i need to touch up i'd never get the new paint to match. Me wife picked the color (gotta let them do something!!) Pretty happy how it turned out. Paint job whole car was only 700bucks with paint.

Both those cars are gorgeous. I love those colors, very original. fd3s7007, anymore pics?

Is it just me or do the passenger-side headlight covers on both cars look a little off?

BTW, nice choice in paint!

Thanks mate. I'll post couple more.

Color looks nice, Hows the paint job itself? the pass. door looks wavier than lake erie

Yup you noticed that too. Well i suppose that happens when you entrust your car to an idiot that supposedly says he can fix simple thing like lights!! Anyways i removed the housing and found that the holder was drilled into and some extra nuts and bolts have been added. The reason was that monkey broke some clips. I've got them fastened but it really has to be replaced.

I'm really good at resizing pics and all so pls excuse the quality. Thats me and my girl...and oh not forgetting my lovely wife ;)

hahahaha. I've honestly never actually polished or waxed the car since the paint job. Oh well i guess i better start now. Thanks for the heads up.

cheers

looks dope

Looks cool, i like the color.

Cool.
Get a front lip to top it off.

I'm liking the color a lot. Very different and very attractive....

ok, I gotta ask....
Did they paint the engine bay? :D

Thanks mates. Misadventure with the local tow truck boys bid farewell to the front lip. Will get one on soon though.

Yup the engine bay is painted.

cheers again to all that took their time to view and comment.

The one I posted did. :bigthumb:

I can't believe how excellent copper looks on FD's, it really does look sharp.

What color is that exactly? Do you happen to have a paint code or know what car that color came off of? I think that color look gorgeous on your car. :)

Looks Good!!!

wow that color is brillant, and you got it for so cheap, thats the best part

Thanks guys. The paint is off a toyota catalogue. Mettalic Copper if memory serves me right. Its the standard colour on the Toyota Vios, at least in Malaysia it is.

Gonna get it cleaned and polished this weekend i hope. Any ideas on what to use?
