mr_maj Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Hi guys ive got a black supra RZ, iv been considering a full colour change for some time now and think i will finally get it done. Ive been trying to find colours, I dont like those flip paints so dont think i will go for one of those colours. Rather one of those electricy blue/purple colours, I cant find much info on where to get the paint codes and info etc, can anyone suggest anywhere? At the same time i will probably fit a bomex front bumper and maybe C-West side skirts and have the whole lot sprayed up in one go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I suppose for the funkiest stuff house of kolor are the boys... But if you are consider a full on respray why not get a custom colour mixed up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve W2 Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Does Lovatt want to give a guide as to original colour overspray prices? As I may consider this too. Would be nice to have an idea and expected time frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_maj Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 I poped into auto paint in bradford on my way home from work today, had a look through some colour cards iv pretty much ruled out the flip paint colours. There were some more subtle flip paints which were quite good, until i came across the range offered by Rage-Extreme i liked the 'Shockwaves' in 'Surfers Paradise' Its nice shade of blue, but very expensive i got quoted 133+VAT Per Litre! Has anyone come across Rage-Extreme paints? Are they worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 My grey car is painted in Rage Extreme Shockwaves Thunderstorm. Depending on the lighting (even the colour of the sky) the car can appear anything from Black to Silver to Bronze. Most of the time it looks like plain old Toyota Quicksilver. £135/Ltr is not expensive for custom paint. There's some pics of the grey car in the Multimedia Gallery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_maj Posted January 25, 2005 Author Share Posted January 25, 2005 Thanks Jake, do you think you could post some pics on this thread? as i cant go access the gallery. How much did it cost you in total to get the re-spray done inc the cost of paint? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much did it cost you in total to get the re-spray done inc the cost of paint? Cost £1030 to buy the body kit, £450 for the paint, £1500 for Dude to paint the car. http://img77.exs.cx/img77/6524/PortsdownHill8.th.jpghttp://img77.exs.cx/img77/3519/PortsdownHill4.th.jpghttp://img77.exs.cx/img77/329/PortsdownHill3.th.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve W2 Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Really? Have you seen the car IRL? No I haven't. I was on a bit of a wind up. From the photo's I saw ages ago it looked a decent paint job EDITED to say its surprising I have never seen the car as we don't live far away from each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair it does look MSB/Bronze in some lights. Personally, I'd never have a car painted in a custom colour again. It's too much hassle when you need stonechips or scratches sorted out. Standard colours for me from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't look the same in those pics though, maybe it was just coz it was dull at JAE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 its surprising I have never seen the car as we don't live far away from each other Where are you? Bournemouth/Poole way isn't it? I never go that far west. Pompey to Southampton everyday is about my limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Phew, I'm glad you said that!! I've told people your car was MSB. yeah, it's weird a colour. Stand it next to SimonB's car and mine looks MSB. Stand it next to Scooter's MSB car and mine looks Quicksilver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stand it next to Scooter's MSB car and mine looks Quicksilver. I've never seen an MSB up close (saw yours before scooters) I probably just presumed it was, pardon my ignorance!!
