Not that teal colour.

Maybe go with a darker red like mine, or a brighter red like corvette red.

Both colours are very bright… corvette red looks really nice, I’ve seen it on a 240sx before.

Makes the stock red that you have look sooo dull.

Dude… err dudette…

Any reason for a color change?-- One well done, without orange-peel is $$$.

Regardless, Charcoal Grey, or Graphite Grey… those colors look sooo damn gorgeous! That Lambo-blue/green’s just going to help you keep your “pull me over!” status.

I worked in a bodyshop for nearly 2 years, so I’ve seen a lot of colours, but the most beautiful colour i have ever seen was on the painter’s truck. the truck came stock black. he sprayed a violet purple over the original clear, then re-cleared it. when the sun was away it looked like a regular black, but when the sun came out, it was the most amazing dark purple pearl I have ever seen. if that’s not for you, you might at least consider spraying a pearl over the existing red. it means you dont have to paint the door jams and all the pain in the ass places
