[nismojunkie]

how about non 2 tone...and the light green off the new jeeps....would look good....

[spoolie]

...........in a ditch or wrapped around a tree? It's your car, why do you ask for suggestions...paint it the color you want dude, or are you so brain dead you can't think for yourself? This is almost like the great honda lego building crazy of the early 2000's.

Here is my suggestion other than the tree idea...do the super stupid gay ass JDM pink with power blue.

[my_friend_bobby]

i can think for myself cuz im prolly gonna end up two tonein it black and blue i just wanted to see if anyone had some options that might change my mind on the paint job

[spoolie]

Don't worry what other people think...make your own decisions. If you ask for opinions you will just be copying someone else.

[silver350tn]

how about just flat green? I like the idea of a flat paint job, but I am against the 2 tone.

[HedTrip]

you'd be copying someone else no matter what u do everythings been done. & if it hasn't there's probley a reason for it lol

[my_friend_bobby]

tru what hasnt been done but i was thinkin if i did the two tone doin a flat black on top and a semigloss blue on the bottom or a gloss orange

[civic freak!!!]

::threadsucks::hey paint it your favorite color:bash:

[my_friend_bobby]

hell i should paint it everycolor in the paint book so i wont be upset

[carmaniac1993]

hell yea. mismatch that bitch.
but whats wrong with the white?
oh wait. bondo and black fenders lol. forgot

[my_friend_bobby]

hell yea. mismatch that bitch.
but whats wrong with the white?
oh wait. bondo and black fenders lol. forgot


yea i dont like the bondo look but itll stay till i get the money for a paint job if i did keep it white i would do the black and white like the old cop cars used to look

[WheresTheBathroom]

fully polish the car

[my_friend_bobby]

what if i rusted it and cleard it hell im not doin that but fully polish the car not quite getting what u mean

[Countrydave]

id say blue emerald from the 95 96 240sx or starfire blue pearl. my fav 2 stock colors

[tigersharkdude]

Chevrolet Corvette electron blue

[Abdo]

Starfire blue pearl is the SEXIEST stock 240 color ever..

BUT.. If you were to two-tone it, please only do it OEM Silvia-K style, (Light blue-ish, on Gray I believe), if not.. Full paint or go home, 2 tone, as well as primer or flat, always looks cheap IMO..

[chelsey45451]

i think charcoal grey with gun metal wheels.. that's what I'm going to do to my 95

[jabboss1]

post a pic..... I eill make my 2 cents known at that time

[my_friend_bobby]

i looked up the starfire blue pear it looks really good i may go with that all my buddies think i shouldnt paint it cuz im tryin to get into drifting and have drove at two of the tnd drift events they say i shouldnt paint it cuz when i hit the wall itll all be for nothing hell

[Countrydave]

if you need any paintwork done let me know i do body work and paint for a livng and have 12+ yrs in the business i have numerous ppl who will vouch for my ablity

[my_friend_bobby]

sweet good to know im thinkin about getting some paint from like autozone or o rileys and tryin a paint job out and seein what the two tone will look like and keepin it for awhile then when i am finally ready goin for the gold with the starfire blue pear

[thetimanator]

first of all...if your talking about just painting the roof black and the rest of the car a different color, stop calling it two-tone. When you say two-tone people think of factory painted two-tone coupes.

Anyway, here's some black roof hatch's:

very tru but i still love my pos 20 year old car

[lonnies240sx]

I say the pepsi blue like you see on some pt crusiers or the white pearl you see on cadillacs. I love how it changes colors with the pearl effect.

[tb94_coupe]

sweet good to know im thinkin about getting some paint from like autozone or o rileys and tryin a paint job out and seein what the two tone will look like and keepin it for awhile then when i am finally ready goin for the gold with the starfire blue pear

^this is where you fucked up lol if your gonna paint it do it right and dont be cheap

[my_friend_bobby]

^this is where you fucked up lol if your gonna paint it do it right and dont be cheap


its just like a rough draft paint job so where should i get the paint from

[Countrydave]

yeah but that stuff is junk youll creat more work for yourself or who ever paints it but using that junk its not neccesarily where but what brand if you dont wanna spend alot of money i suggest nason fulbase with nason selcet clear overtop.

[tb94_coupe]

you can use nason like countrydave said but if you really want a nice long lasting paint job find a ppg dealer get deltron base and dcu2002 clear thats what i use on the more expensive cars i paint there are so many options on what you could use id be here all day telling you im just throwing ppg out ther b/c thats all i use and ive never been dissapointed but ive heard good thing about duplicolor and basf if you wanna check them out 2 every brand has their high grade and low grade material

[Countrydave]

it all depends on how much $$$$ you wanna spend

[aye bee]

krylon..... doit.

[my_friend_bobby]

i dont have a whole lot of money right now thats why was goin cheap wit it but if i can get some better stuff then autozone shit for pretty cheap i might get it

[mintygood]

two tone, nice

[my_friend_bobby]

two tone, nice

thanks unless ur being sarcastic

[tb94_coupe]

i dont have a whole lot of money right now thats why was goin cheap wit it but if i can get some better stuff then autozone shit for pretty cheap i might get it
ur lookin at about 200 - 250 in material even if you go the cheaper route

www.tcpglobal.com (http://www.tcpglobal.com) this site has some pretty cheap kustom shop and house of colors shit you might check here

[shelnut]

[batmanfc]

[civic freak!!!]

[my_friend_bobby]

I like just the black roof look.

i like it too but imma try the two tone first and when i decide to keep it or not imma do the starfire blue pearl w the black roof
