jazz1 Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 I think we need a good green Supra I had a play as a possible colour to go for if I feel like a change http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y112/mplavery/960af8e1.jpg jaguar do some nice colours Italian racing red They also do a really nice black with a flick of purple but I can't remeber the name I prefer your liquid yellow, the only part about red is it fades over time. If I decide black it has to be a good black shade, unless someone can convince me of another colour that would suit my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 A dark copper/brown would look good: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I have been looking at super cars on YouTube, such a hard choice as Red is nice but eventually turns pink! Maybe on a 90's Corsa that has been left out & never driven for 3 years. Red's don't fade like they used to, paint has changed massively! Also back then a lot of cars didn't have lacquer and the detailing industry was very small so few looked after the paint. Ever seen a faded red Ferrari?

mplavery Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) When I was trying to choose a colour I went round all the local dealers to see what new colours are about ... Worth a try mate My car was going to be a dark blue but then saw the renault cup liquid yellow .. So I took a gamble which paid off Edited March 13, 2015 by mplavery (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedrosixfour Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Always had a bit of a soft spot for Lambo's Verde Draco as used on the Murcielago. I think the shot of it approaching the hammer head on Stig's lap is what sold me on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mk4Gaz Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Red only fades if it's not lacquered - ie solid colour. 2k lacquer is uv stable, so it's stops the sun from bleaching the colour. Any older cars you see that are faded, is because they're painted in solid colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
