what are the colors/codes?

vertedslider · 10-03-2009, 09:01 PM

the vert was just some red and green wit some pearl
the s14 i think he said its an olive green from the honda fit

*Wake* · 10-03-2009, 09:18 PM

looks like the green from the element, i didnt know that fits came in a green like that.

Colorado S14 · 10-04-2009, 10:31 AM

Can someone suggest a factory color which is close to this House of Kolors Cobalt Blue Kandy? I think I am going to try to paint the car myself and there is no way I can make HOK Kandy work for my first full spray job, it is seriously tough to work.

*Wake* · 10-04-2009, 02:09 PM

looks almost like bayside, but bayside is a bit more green/blue I think but pretty damn close

just google bayside blue and you will find plenty of examples

EndLeSS8 · 10-04-2009, 02:24 PM

Can someone please give me a paint code for WHITE from Work Wheels? I need some touchup paint. Thanks.

sorry but can some one tell me what these are called, and where we can get one??

i had a fun time trying to name it and explain it to my bro haha "paint swatch model car but its not a car its like a ufo and its got like bumps on the side it looks like a car, practice model i dunno i give up lol etc. etc."

silviaguy240 · 10-06-2009, 09:34 AM

its a plastic rc car body.

r6_240sx · 10-06-2009, 12:02 PM

^Not exactly, but you can use RC car bodies for the same purpose.

Any paint jobber that carries House of Kolor will usually carry those those little car templates. Some places even have like mini-hoods and fenders.

I know Coast Airbrush sells them at their store, but I can't find it on their online site...

Magnetic Black (G41)

Just wanted to let everyone know, I had a friend who bedlinered this car as beater drift biatch and then sold it to layedout when he lost interest. He ended up buying it back, fixing it up, DA'in all the bedliner off (what a mess) and painting it urban camo with white jdm wheels, turboing it, then selling it to a guy from Jersey who painted it gloss gray, and actually looks really nice. He might even be a member on here.
