Hot or Not??? Paint job

[chuvak3]

Almost finnished working on my body. Time to think about paint and graphics. The color that I wont to go with is dark gray with red pearl (so it with reflect with red on the sun)Not sure on how it will look like, I will need to do some sprayouts. That's going to be a main color, but what I'm thinkking is about graphics...
I got that idea from NFS Carbon... It's a flame body. (If you have that game go to costomize, get red color and make it indisent, than go to Flame Body and go with #1 layout)... At 1st I thought it looks cool, but start having 2nd thoughts about it.
CHECK IT OUT AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK???

[bamaboy]

please don't go with anything you saw on Need For Speed. Do you self a favor and don't mention that around these parts....you'll save yourself some grief in the long run.

[djp.]

its your car, make it the way u want it, personally i would go red

[d*star180]

Yes.....yes, thats what ill do.

[eastcoastS14]

lol i smell a repeat of the pimp my ride 240 lol..but seriously do whatever you think looks good being different will always get some opposition but at the end of the day its what looks good to you

[420sx]

depends. if a track car go all crazy whatever you like. if its just stocker to roll around get something plain/ plainer. your choice either way

[waynehead05]

that sounds like it will look pretty nice. what wheels? finish on the wheels?

it really depends on all this type of stuff.

i'm not a fan of the whole flame thing on an import, thats more of a bagged truck/hot rod type of thing, but it is your car. a lot of lowriders have whole murals painted on them, sometimes people dont like them, but they dont own the car you know. the red would look pretty sick, with black kinda a panda ae86 type of thing...i do like that myelf.

fuck that, plain doesn't get rednecks going to the chiropractor from crackin their neck when you drive by.

[infinitexsound]

[420sx]

[Silverbullet]

[420sx]

[chuvak3]

Yea. I know it can look like [email protected]#t. That's why I posted a thread to se what other ppl think about it. If I whould've been 100% sure about it, I whould've not post it.
Alot of ppl told me "are you out of your F#$n mind?". than some of them looked on the pics and sad it's alright. Lost of oldshoolers liked it.

[TiNMAN]

looks like shit imo.

[Quigs]

^^^ I second that.

Flame jobs can be pulled off on some cars (if done right)

A 240 is NOT one of those cars.

[McRussellPants]

Maruta Goya has the answer you crave.

if you don't know what Im talking about you have two options.

A) make your car look like total ass pile.
B) buy a rat rod or something.


Imma go ahead and call it as option A.

[ThatGuy]

I am an "Old Schooler". I grew up around Hot Rods, Street Rods, and Rat Rods. I am using some of the techniques and trends from those genre's of car building to influence me in my build.

Including all those factors into my decision to give you advice... I think that paint job will look like someone took a Fast and Furious Shit all over the car. But hey, that's just my opinion. While some elements will work on our cars, that flame job is not one of them.

i honestly think that it looks like total shit.
but what you do is up to you. whether it looks like shit or not, the car and choice is yours.

[mRclARK1]

I personally wouldn't put flames on ANY vehicle... it's hardly original and is kinda cheesy IMHO.

But it's your car, make yourself happy, and build it how you want too.

[chuvak3]

OK than :barf:
The flams got to go.
--------------
I still will go with with same collor. But I will need to come up with something also:bash:

Dos any1 got any points or ideas???

[95Kouki]

dude are you building a show car...if so...then more power to you...or do you actually plan on driving this thing?

[chuvak3]

I will drive it, but it's not a dayle driver. Actualy I setted up for autocros, but after paint job, I don't know about raceing it

[420sx]
