Lovely Idol Inc. · 12-20-2011, 12:07 AM

You know, for the unemployment market being so high you assholes all sure do have a lot of time to be on here

Messed around with some pearl white base, hummer h2 yellow, and lambo orange on my air filter, did a fade away thing, I know the picture kind of sucks

Porsche has a color similar to that, finding the paint code is almost fucking impossible I have found though

fyneyoungstunna · 12-21-2011, 10:44 AM

i think the Porsche one is more metallic if your talking about the carrera rs. I have the 3 blues (light,dark,and mid) at the shop by my house. I can get some pics for ya if you want to try to figure it that way....

buentellomma · 12-26-2011, 07:06 PM

Just painted my buddy's AE86 today, corvette atomic orange and black two tone..

Lovely Idol Inc. · 12-30-2011, 12:21 AM

Everything done at hotline we do our best to make it sweet unless its my street car, then I cut corners because its always temporary haha

Drewber2006 · 12-30-2011, 12:28 PM

Not as much as if you paint it orange, yellow, red, or tri stage/pearls

Silver really isn't that expensive but since you are in socal you have to deal with homo water based paint so it takes a lot more paint to do anything

thenooblet · 12-30-2011, 12:56 PM

Spruce Mica
Code-6V4

Drewber2006 · 12-31-2011, 02:49 PM

If I can get a really dark silver color I would be contempt. I wa thinking about just going black but I don't want to pay out my ass for such a basic color lol. Doesn't need to sparkle or anything like that. I'd rather finish my turbo setup instead of paint my car

I don't really know anything about paint but I'd like to gain some knowledge. So in Cali we have to use water based paints? What? P

Lovely Idol Inc. · 12-31-2011, 03:28 PM

Southern California law says to use low voc paints but all of the low voc solvent based paints are super shitty and chip easily, so water base is better, it just takes forever to spray between coats.

If you can get someone who uses solvent based paints, do it. Water base is pretty transparent.

thenooblet · 01-02-2012, 02:49 PM

^I think its OEM Red.

Lovely Idol Inc. · 01-02-2012, 05:38 PM

Yeah, I am pretty sure its the kouki red

allntrlundrgrnd · 01-02-2012, 08:08 PM

The feature doesn't list a color so I think it's safe to assume it's a factory color.

Edit: 2,400 posts!

mxracerjason · 01-04-2012, 12:20 PM

If it's not factory it could be anything from Toyota Super Red code 3E5 to Ford Vermilion Red code E4.

*Wake* · 01-04-2012, 01:58 PM

I really hope your not 42

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

19kouki98 · 01-04-2012, 05:01 PM

hey so sorry if this has been previously discussed, but I've always been interested in whether a database for 240's, specifically 97-98, on the number of vehicles produced based on their factory colors. I've tried searching for quite some time so I'm not sure if such a database exists. Figured this would be a better place to ask than to start a new thread. The reason being is that i have a silver moss and i know its a pretty rare color behind the starfire and fuschia. just that I'd like to see specific numbers if possible. Thanks for any help provided.

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.

*Wake* · 01-04-2012, 05:06 PM

I know for a fact its somewhere on this site.

pretty sure all the production numbers are around here somewhere. i have seen em just cant remember where.

19kouki98 · 01-04-2012, 05:22 PM

well that's a good sign. hopefully it turns up. thanks for giving me some hope haha
