I gotta agree. Try picking different shades like obsidian black pearl, ivory pearl, midnight blue metallic or silver pewter metallic... candy brandy wine for the win!

Not sure what brand it is, but Jesse James' Viper is painted this sick Root Beer color...

LloydXmas · 12-12-2006, 08:37 PM

I have Dupont hot hues candy red over cosmic dust and it is very unique how it turned out. I would check out dupont's custom line. They are little higher in price but it is awesome paint. I do love some Kandybrandywine though.

KA-T_240 · 12-13-2006, 12:37 AM

^PICS please

iAMprojekt · 12-13-2006, 08:08 AM

def dark blue.... something different

LloydXmas · 12-13-2006, 08:41 PM

these are some pics before i installed the badly needed apexi ex-v coils, and 5 lug w/z32 brake upgrade to rid myself of the shitty rims lol. The color stands out and looks better in sunlight. Sorry for the size i suck at posting pics.

woodchuck · 12-14-2006, 12:40 PM

go with the dark blue. it may seem played(jdm adds) but i don't see that many on the road.

kandy brandy wine is nice....thats similar what i got, except for i mixed some kandy apple in htere as well!

house of kolor is truly an awesome quality paint! it cost an arm and a leg but its truly worth it!

LloydXmas · 12-14-2006, 05:28 PM

your car is very clean. So did you mix the candy coats together? Actually house of kolor paint is the cheapest around where i live, you should see the prices for dupont hot hues, but luckily i do body work and paint and get good deals.

CA18_S13 · 12-14-2006, 07:21 PM

Bring back two tone paintjobs.

mr_240sx · 12-14-2006, 10:16 PM

not sure exactly how it was mixed cause it was done professionally...... but im pretty sure he mixed both of them together.

Um, ive never seen that color. But we have a member of this forum that painted his S14 a rootbeer looking color. It so slick looking. A nice deep metallic brown color. And the reason i say 'rootbeer' is because his handle is Team Rootbeer.
Check it out.

LloydXmas · 12-15-2006, 05:49 AM

Yeah there is actually rootbeer candy coats, that is probably what he did his in. It's probably the only brown that i like.

azndummie · 12-17-2006, 07:19 PM

i dont really see dark blue s13's so it would be cool if there were more around

dorkjoey240 · 01-27-2007, 10:24 PM

Black would sick on nissan cars.

streetracerb86 · 01-28-2007, 03:24 PM

Dark blue has always been one of my favorites so thats what i would go with

EDacIouSX · 02-08-2007, 09:04 PM

i say go with dark silver. haven't seen many of those and white is pretty played out for s13s + they don't look that good on hatches.

mrs.drift33 · 02-08-2007, 09:06 PM

coupe-white or black
