What colour ?

Post by Dozoor »

Help me make a decision , This is the elcheapo paint job -
It will get fugged up ,so its a rattler job for easy quick home repairs -
its not going to be a dialy driver anymore as i scored a tow pig -
So easy outragous is not totaly out of the Question , Might even just do hammer silver ,or gunmetal had one in the gunmetal , very conservative
hehe was easy to repair to covers a multitude of sins ,

tried two colours , don,t mind the red ,bit like my old one -Orange takes a dozen coates to cover , Ideas Please !!

paint it with stoneguard, the whole car. That way it's different but practical.

The astro turf one i saw was a bloody crackup. the entire outside was covered, roof cut off and the entire interior done in it aswell!!! Just imagine a green, fuzzy, topless HQ sedan!!What was really funny is when some idiots actually hired it out to go to the formal one year!!! :D
