Guest SL1D3Y Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 What are you looking for from the colour? And what sort of budget for paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 This is awesome! I know it might be considered criminal, but I'm also a +1 for the Nissan midnight purple... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 I am looking for a solid colour, perhaps with a slight tinge of another colour, something not straying completely from the pack but unique enough to be noticed in a crowd. Budget is not fixed, anything is an option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Okay guys, due to not wanting to fully deviate from the Toyota colour options, I have decided that I am going to go with the Lexus LFA Blue, the one that Josh suggested as its quite close to RSP but with a new take on the colour. Next question for all you helpful chaps is, what colour of subframe and suspension arms should I be looking to powder coat in order to go nicely with the new paintwork?

SPG Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 I was thinking maybe a Shadow chrome subframe, then all the arms etc done in gloss black to make a nice contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOGIE Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 i know the perfect colour sunny but im keeping it to myself or some one will beat me to it. Eye catching, classy, but needs to have the right wheels to accompany it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eye catching, classy, but needs to have the right wheels to accompany it. I am well set on the Lexus Blue now, so next time I'm round I'm making you spill lol Edited August 31, 2013 by SPG (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Wow! I love that! Good choice of the LFA Blue matey is quite a lovely colour Thanks mate, I'm happy with the Blue as I have totally done a 180 on the CCW LM20's, and the new wheels will suit this colour so much more. That yellow is lovely, IIRC that is a photoshopped pic as the original car is white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll struggle to get the subframes shadow chrome IMO, certainly won't last long. I wouldn't worry too much about the subframes, a good powdercoat would do nicely. I'd still go with gloss black though, as glossy as you can ge it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say it did look a bit too 'perfect' to be real, shame really as would love to see it on something un-photo shopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
