Its finally happening, my car, which has been primer for years, is FINALLY getting painted. a friend of mine is doing it really cheap and he does really good work. so the color of the car is going to be bright white, i want the iroc decals and all back on the car. Originally the car was white with silver/black decals. I am playing with the idea of a. using the original color scheme or b. doing a white and gold package. the rims need to be redone so either color scheme requires the same amount of work. I really like the black and white combo but the gold and white is nice as well. I have the stock black interior so im kinda leaning towards the black/silver but i kinda want to be a little different so im not sure.

any opinions? thanks!

Since you have the black interior, I'd go with the gray/black stripes and lettering. If you had the saddle tan interior, then you could pull off the gold stripes. JMO of course!

Black. It'll definitely look better on your car - unless you plan on recovering your seats in gold :lol:. Once it's painted the only way I'll recognize your car is with the clock in the console!

I just got everything to throw a fresh coat of white paint on my T/A. I am going to try the white and blue scheme like the older T/A's. Definitely post pics, I would love to see how you did yours.

when my car is done i can ask him :) he is a word of mouth business, he has a shop in PA right off 80 near the gap, price will depend on how much he has to do, im doing all of the body work except final primer and color. i cant give you a price because he is cutting me a really good deal, but i can tell you his work is amazing and if i wasnt sick this week the car would be going to the shop.

cool thanks for the input, i was always leading towards the black but just wanted to see it. anyone have a gold trimmed white iroc pic? i googled it but nothing really.

next question, what type of paint does anyone use for the rims? i was thinking duplicolor then a ton of clear coat.
