Custom Toyota 4U3 Paint... I just got the car on the road before our Canadian winter hit so I don't have much pics.
What it looks like out of the sun on a cloudy day... Here it is post buffing in the sunset... I've been seeing bronze/brown on newer cars and it works well for older cars too. |

Alright zilvia, after many years of stocking parts, I'm going to finally pull the trigger, and get my hatchback painted. The painter that I'm going through, uses Dupont, and here's where I could use your help. I need suggestions from those that are familiar with the dupont colors to help me narrow down my choices. These are my 3 colors, that I'm picking between: red, orange/copper, and black with pearl. I'm looking for something that really pops. Please don't suggest the dupont hot hues line, because I can't afford it. I'm looking forward to hearing your suggestions, or comments.

Also wondering about this color. Audi emerald doesn't seem quite right.

It's one of the few red exteriors I like.
Most other reds look more orange or are too dark. If I was keeping my car red, that would be it. |

Thanks for the suggestions! Went down to the shop today, and I'm pretty dead set on Mazda's Soul Red. But that Melbourne red is so nice too! I'll see if he has the color chip for that, so that I can see in in person.

Thanks to you, I'm actually going to see if I can check out the paint chip in person, for Melbourne red. I actually got to see a Mazda in soul red in person, and although it's a really nice color, it's more maroon than I thought. It's still in the running, but let's see what Melbourne has to offer.

I was able to snap a couple of pictures showing the Mazda Soul Red color. It's amazing how the color changes, depending on the light, and angles. I'm really digging it. It's a candy apple red color, but yet appears orange at times. Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk |

So, after thinking about it and looking at other reds, I've decided against the Mazda Soul red. Did more Googling, and here is a list of reds that I've compiled that have peaked my interest: Ford Torch Red/Viper Red/Tsukuba Red/Porsche Guards Red/Mazda True Red/Dodge Redline red/Ford Redfire pearl metallic. Gonna have to look at the paint chips for these colors, but man the amount of red paints in the world, are making my head spin!

I am trying to find a red to paint my coupe as well. The 2 I was debating between is the Mazda Soul Red and Ford Ruby Red Metallic. There are so many nice reds out there but I am down to between these two.
