Dorman, you can already guess the color that I like............pink! But do a flat pink, it will look better

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 06:59 PM

Why didn't I think of that...talk about a hott color

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 07:22 PM

Grey, that's pretty much the color that I was trying to explain to you, now you can't get it

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 07:30 PM

Sorry

One of the other colors I was thinking of...which is really close to the Slate Grey is Basalt Black Metallic:

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 07:37 PM

too dark IMO

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 07:38 PM

I think I like the slate better though...

I thought you were keeping yours Red anyways

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 07:52 PM

I am, trying to pic the color though... super red, something else, super red, something else

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 07:57 PM

What colors are on your list?

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 08:18 PM

I guess it's better said like this, I'm not sure about going super red 2. I think the door jams are darker than super red, so I need to find a happy medium. i do like this color though (some porche color as well, but not sure how much... Not sure about doing the mouldings black or red....

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 08:56 PM

go all red...looks more updated...

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 09:10 PM

I'm actually leaning towards black.... but it's still a toss up

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 09:18 PM

any reason in particular? I'm going for a more updated look...are you wanting to stay classic?

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 09:58 PM

I guess you could say that, lots of parts are black so it kinda fits...

rousegk7 · 11-05-2008, 10:10 PM

steel blue metallic

or steel gray metallic from bmw.

honda_bar · 11-05-2008, 10:28 PM

^ you have good taste! *bites lip, those are some amazing cars! the second pic reminded me of a rx7...

Mark_Dorman · 11-05-2008, 10:50 PM

I like the darker grey metallic colors definitely. I think the completely shaved body work looks a little funny. Nice cars though...

mr.asian.m2 · 11-06-2008, 12:10 AM

mmmmmm.....maybe...candy pink?

but, jet black is the way to go. i love seeing black mr2. sexy as hell.

miracleman89 · 11-07-2008, 02:10 AM

I live in AZ. so for me dark colors suck!!! When I finish rebuilding mine, I plan to paint it Super White with blue pearl essence!

Abmeister · 11-08-2008, 04:43 AM

i like the steel blue metallic on the subaru, looks clean. i voted for the metallic blue, but thats cuz i like blue. i think after everything is done, blue looks nice, it looks subtle yet has a strong feel to it. blue metallic and a black engine bay.....*drools*........

EvilElvis · 11-17-2008, 12:46 AM

I like the metallic blue, and there aren't too many deep blue sw20s
