Iv been thinking about paint for when I finish my car up in the next few months and I really like how this car came out but i want it to be red instead of orange

i like an all red 3rd gen. the orange looks sick no doubt. maybe if it had black graphics on the ground effects like big als. it is a sweet little two tone though no doubt.

the orange looks better to me. maybe if the colors were flipped or it had black graphics on the ground effects. my opinion. it will grow on me though, its starting to.

I prefer the orange/black combo. Then throw on some black rims and emblems

I have the same front bumper and same ground effects on my car as the one in the pic except I have a grill on my car rather than fogs.

That second photochop looks AWSOME just like I invision it.

My ground effects will have black z28 badges on them too. The only other thing iv been thinking about is the turn signals smoked or clear with that paint?

I wont copy someone elses paint so I cant bring my self to do the orange/black combo tho its been my desktop background for weeks!

The red is screaming too much in that pic, and kinda hides the two tone. I would try some vinyl down the sides to equal out the red to black ratio, but the orange to me, doesnt need anything to balance it out.

A little more black would hurt.
Any one want to photoshop these wheels on the car normally and then in black. Maybe thatll balance the red to black ratio.

I think a deep red would look better too.

You stole my idea lol. I was thinking of doing that to my camaro but doing the stock green color on the bottom and going black on top.
