I’m going to give that $50 paint job thing a go. The only problem is I can not figure out a paint scheme that I am happy with. **Orange** and **Black** are a must. I do not want to end up looking like the Home Depot car so I want black the dominating color. If you want to get really fancy the cars number will remain 83 in any legable font. Also Hybrid Connection or HC on rear quarters and hood. ![http://sonikempire.com/gallery/albums/events/AutoX4-22-06/IMG_5344.jpg](http://sonikempire.com/gallery/albums/events/AutoX4-22-06/IMG_5344.jpg) ![http://sonikempire.com/gallery/albums/events/AutoX4-22-06/IMG_5340.jpg](http://sonikempire.com/gallery/albums/events/AutoX4-22-06/IMG_5340.jpg) ---

Heres a real quick version of the color scheme I would go for. I darkened the black and added the orange, I didn’t touch the decals and such for now. Also highlighted the 83 real quick. It at least gives an idea. Only about 8 min work. ---

yeah that is what I have in my head right now. The scheme I have been working with my leet MS paint skillz… ![http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/oj1.jpg](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/oj1.jpg) ![http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/oj2.jpg](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/oj2.jpg) I think the orange is a little too much, possible change the numbers to silver to break it up a little. I have two hoods available so if the oj for the hood is too much it is a quick change. Really I am looking for something totally different. I was thinking car all black and Atari stipes down the hood. I just couldn’t get to look right. I am really big into 70’s two tone schemes. ---

![http://www.zer0daze.com/pics/julie.jpg](http://www.zer0daze.com/pics/julie.jpg) the idea you have would look good i think. i like the wheels with the color on the lip though, and the spokes all black. ---
