So I have been toying around what color I want to eventually have my car painted... the white is cool, but what about other colors? I have a few here that might look good on my car... just looking for opinions (yes my photoshopping sucks... but its also hard to make a white car another color, same with black)
Basically I just want a color that a) looks nice and b) stands out

Original


Mauve


Pastel Blue


Deep purple (lighting on this one sucks, but at least a rough estimate)


Dark Red


Pastel Teal

 

i like the pastel teal alot
lol i jsut noticed, my friend has those exact rims in 14" they look so goofy small
much nicer larger, what are those 16"?

 

17" with some nitto neogens, I like how much better it grips/looks now... no more mismatched wheels :p

 

My vote is keep it white, like a crystal white maybe.

Other than that, deep red.

 

Me too! Keep the white

 

That or a burnt orange, like the 350Z. A pearl white would be sweet.

 

i must say that i like the pastel teal, i would say do it a grey though.

 

the mazda 6 comes in a really neat burnt orange, i was thinking about laying down a coat on my vert, but i'd get a better idea if you'd do your car first!! I like the teal, but would think a trick opalescent white (that would morph to another color) would be trick.

 

what about PINK!

i like white.

 

^^^ha I think that you should go with pearl white. Really pretty only prob is that if you need a re-paint it is really hard to match the colors!

 

Yeah, I really like the white too. I was just messing around in photoshop seeing what other colors might look cool.

Was looking at that one and it looks pretty awesome.
Granted it wont be painted for some time, but better to look at colors now and really decide what I want before getting too much closer to the time.

 

I vote white...
White always looks so clean, unlike the dark colors that are a pain in the butt to keep clean all the time....

 

Hehe, well white is a pain in as well especially after rain got dust/dirt spots everywhere... and ever since i added that wing my back bumper get real dirty real fast, but that just goes to show that it actually is doing something :p
After today cleaning it up a bit and taking more pictures I am going to stay with the white, it seems to have more prestige than the other "look at me" colors I was thinking about.
Now just gotta start pricing it, etc... since the paint thats on it right now is really starting to peel...but t2 hood first
Thanks for all the comments

 

Type R yellow. JK

 

I vote Red with the Teal as a second.

 

^^^ha.

The best thing about keeping it the stock color is that you do not have to repaint the door jams engine bay etc. You could do it without that but it looks like isht IMO.

 

Keep it the original color. The white color hides dents if you should ever get one and you will be able to get some fantastic pictures with white. Personly My rx7 is noble white I think it is one of the best stock colors. It can compete with custom colors of good choice. I painted a car once and it was alot of work just to stay with the same color. I painted the door jams but if I had changed color like I originally planed I would have done the engine,trunk and somtimes the interior.

GOOD LUCK

 

Heh, anyone that has seen my engine bay know that it looks like *** anyways though, but yes repainting it a diff color cheaply does look like ***... my old friend's eclipse was painted purple over a green so the doors/engine bay were all green and it looks kinda funky....
But thats the reason that i was messing around in photoshop before just randomly going out and painting it... just to see if it would look any better than it does now... its going to be quite some time before i get a real paint job however
Plus with it still keeping white dont have to deal with insurance and all that stuff

 

Pastel Teal do that one that would be an origional colour!

 

White first choice. blue type red second choice( its the second red on display)

 

Why not the PINK with White. It would Rock!

 

There was that one guy that came to to Izzy's meet. His car was slammed with white and pink paint. He alsp had a loud BOV...any one remember?

 

angry earl aka ftotheC
he posted pics of the pink/white car after he wrapped it around either a truck or a pole a coupl months ago

 

The teal would be awesome ^_^!

 

ohhh that is too bad
