The definitive paint thread. Nuff said.

[Lovely Idol Inc.]

Did you try searching this thread at all?

[19kouki98]

yea roughly. just don't have all day to go through over 70 pages so figured i'd ask. don't see much harm in that

[Lovely Idol Inc.]

I could have sworn someone posted something about it on a different car, I'm not going to waste my time looking though

[yomisiu]

when i paint my car, its definitely going to be this, 8W1 'clearwater blue metallic', from the new Camry's

color looks fucking amazing in real life

[hypercrush]

finished these wheel faces today. how minty. pulled it from a color card so i dont know the code, just the formula

[Wake]

looks almost like tiffany blue.

[hypercrush]

it is definitely much greener than tiffany, almost no blue in the mix just green and mostly white. my camera doesn't want to take a picture of it properly, kinda frustrating

[Lovely Idol Inc.]

If I liked vs xx I would be all about that, but I will say the finish work looks pretty nice

[hypercrush]

i dislike mesh wheels, and would never own them. but i thought he picked his color really well. painting mesh wheels blows though, i hate it everytime

Because you seriously make some of the most fucking retarded posts on this site.

You should go get a bag of dicks so when you finally have enough courage to come out of the closet you'll have something to suck on. Otherwise just keep on being a Super Douche.

Do'nt be so hard on him. The wheels look great and the outer hoops just need a little love.

Its not like it takes a whole lot of time to get the centers out of the wheels and polish the barrels real quick. Fuck, just take the the metal polish to the fucking wheels while they are all together

[hypercrush]

i tried to sell him on the polishing but he wasnt having the extra cost, and no way im working for free. no sir

[Lovely Idol Inc.]

Yeah, I have been tossing some extra work in for the past six months, I'm fucking over doing anything for anyone ever again.

[Alveezy]

damn this thread is inspiring.

[Trinidrift3]

Anyone know what color this is??

[Lovely Idol Inc.]

Could be the stock s15 red

[hypercrush]

another engine bay


gold base/gold pearl in the clear. no code just a formula, holler if ya need it

[1gr8bar10der]

^^^ is that color based on BMW Phoenix yellow? Looks good. Hope your wheels are in gun metal.

[hypercrush]

good eye there, i agree it has some similarities. but phx yellow definitely has a different side tone and color shift. this is just a color pulled from a card with HOK yellow-gold pearl midcoat. not sure what wheels he will be running, the exterior of the car is factory white w/ silvia front.

oh and the tube front/tubs were done by our neighbors Future Fabrication here in phoenix AZ

[Royal_T]

That looks good.. It kind of looks like a Matte finish or semi-gloss finish..

[chiboy002]

if the tubs were done nicer it would look so much better but im assuming its a dedicated track car
