Its about time....
 
I really decided what color im going to go with when i redo the exterior of my car. Now iv been undecided about this for years asking people to do photoshops and what not, and i still cant decide what i like. Now in the crew i usually roll with we already have a blue, red, pewter, and green car. My car is currently black with red stripes if you dont know it. Here are some colors i was thinking of and i dont want to copy any of the other guys around so let me know what you guys think would look good or if you have other suggestions please voice your opinions, but please include pics if you suggest somthing.. thanks! here are a few pics of colors i like

This color is a mazda color called Copper Red Mica - seen this driving past a car in a parking lot and the waythe sun hit it caught my eye. Looked really nice, But would like to still see it up close. It sort of changes to copper in the right sunlight

This is classic Rally Green- iv been in love with this color for years and was almost dead set on this color till i starting thinking of others

This is another classic color fathom green - i dig olive drab type colors and this is pretty close to that. if i did this color i would throw some pearls in it to kick it up alittle bit because its a little dull

This is a custom PPG color called Midnight Sapphire pearl - this is probably the most expensive of all the colors i listed but its just F-in gorgeous...

and everybodies favorite that i refuse to take off the table... Candy Rootbeer... its so different of a color that i had trouble finding good pics of it... would probably do some sort of house of kolors candy for this... id have to look into it more...

MSP looks killer

maroman88 08-15-2010 11:37 PM

agree with those 3 other people

FlyingDutchman 08-15-2010 11:59 PM

MSP hands down

HeadlessNorseman 08-16-2010 12:12 AM

Im liking that rootbeer color, but it might not look correct on the lt1 bird body, hard to explain what i mean. but going with the grain that midnight sapphire color is pretty hard to beat and would def work with gray interior, black engine bay, and the shape of the car

Midnight Sapphire pearl is a jaw dropper man

LS1ow 08-16-2010 01:49 AM

Tru2Chevy 08-16-2010 04:07 PM

MSP for sure....did a search to find more pics of it and I really like that color.

Here's another view of it on a custom crew cab Model A pickup:

WOW! thanks justin thats a sweet pick of it... the only pic i could find was of that old ford truck... only it looks like this guy may have gone with a different undercoat and more coats of the transparent blue, because its alot brighter... looks like im going blue then... but im still open to suggestions if anyone has any. Iv though of purple but its not for me and i dont think it looks right on birds...

fmybody 08-16-2010 04:58 PM

FlyingDutchman 08-16-2010 05:09 PM

Here's a link with many more pics of that truck: http://inventory.bestofshowautomotiv...asp?VIN=131729

Also, if you are thinking purple at all, I say it has to be bright purple metallic - that was a great factory color.

Botanical Green Metalic from Jag. Its a very nice and dark green with some flake in it.
When the light hits it, its a very vibrant green. At night, the color is turned way down.

sweetbmxrider 08-28-2010 05:23 PM

lincoln has a sick green on the new mkz, you should check that out. its similar to al's pic but not as green i think

Tru2Chevy 08-28-2010 05:34 PM

Bright Green Metallic (Kerminator ver. 2.0?):

DevilDougWS6 08-28-2010 05:56 PM

i would do nbm or the midnight sapphire pearl....


.....just sayin:nod:

JL8Jeff 08-29-2010 09:55 AM

Burnished Brown is an original 69 Camaro color that looks great and has some nice metallic to it. But I don't think it would look right on your car. Another nice color is Classic Copper from the 1970-71 Camaro.

Here's a 70 in Copper:

MaxTheKiing 08-31-2010 06:05 PM

the blue is really nice

KirkEvil 09-01-2010 03:09 PM

Do you plan to add accents like your current red stripes or keep it solid?

transmaro93 09-01-2010 03:57 PM

probably keep the BB stripes... and black sail panel...
