Stevo Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 If I was looking to change colours I'd be looking at the colours produced by Lamborghini, Maserati, Aston Martin etc. They select colours that show off the cars at their best but still exude class to go with a touch of exotica!

bmx1lew Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Was that yours looking shiney at the north east meet ? yeah, its amazing how much it shines, Thats why I said on the photos Im amazed how clean it looks, Up close the car was covered in tree sap and pollen and I was been mocked as I had whipe the bird plop off lol I have a few bad spots where the laqure is lifting, but apart from that when its clean it gives a great deep shine, its like a brown mirror lol Lew.

bmx1lew Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Here's a few Pics of my Antracite 1a1 soop aka Monkey s**t brown. This S2000 was one of the most amazing colours I've ever seen, It was Pearl White, at different angels it changed from a silvery white to a glittery mat white. I cant really explain how it looked but all I can say is pearl white is amazing! shame the camera couldnt capture it JamesC's car think its standard black but has an amazing deep shine. Not sure what this grey is but looks similar to that lambo one. heres a close up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veilside Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 These are the only 2 pics I can find and the colour is Lamborghini Grigio Avlon (code 0049). Does it for me - and the RSP one in the background of pic 2 is looking sweet too absolutely stunning. any price tags for a respray with that colour?? i can imagine it to be quite hefty.

Stevo Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 The lambo grey one I posted used to belong to a guy on here called Cleland - don't know if he still has it though. I think ChiefGroover has his done in this colour too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Quicksilver. By far the nicest silver. gunmetal is dull and boring. Standard silver is far 2 light. quicksilver is a perfect middle ground http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/5513/imgp0164fo1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P 17EED Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 I need more help, went to collect that lambo colour the other day but at the moment it cant be done in water based so chose a ferrari colour similar but same as so thought i would go for RSP but you need to have a blue under coat for it apparently, which would add another few hundred to my bill which i just cant push to now. Any other ideas, i want it to look smart and slightly different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
