  • If I were to do a color change........opinions please!!!!!!!!

    I have a 1995 SC400 with Gold Work VS-XXs and I have a whole bunch of parts going on the car in a little less than a month and it will need a paint job. I will be keeping the wheels the same color but I was wondering since the car is going down to base what would a good new color be?! My first thought was Ren Red(MKIV Supra factory color) then researched it and alot of SC guys run that. Secondly I thought Candy Apple Red Pearl(IS250 factory color) but now I am leaning towards Alpine Green Pearl(another IS250 factory color). I want to know what other colors the public thinks would be a good color for the car. Most of the parts going on are carbon fiber so a darker tone would be desired and all the parts are time attack inspired but I want the first glance(color) to be closer to luxury.

    Any ideas?

    Current color and stance.

      I want the CF to pop though, I think black will blend the car too much. Don't get me wrong it would look awesome, but it would look like I was going for VIP and then got the wrong parts in......lol.

          I like the idea or a pearl paint job. did you think of something completely different?

          Like plum crazy? i think it would be sick with the gold wheels. and it would definitely be unique.

                White, black, or grey. Steel grey from the e46 m3 is quite nice, or maybe carbon black from the same car.

                  Get it wrapped in vinyl you can choose basically any color!!! I would do a wrap similar to this GS from VSC.com it would really stand out!

                    Never really been a fan of Plum Crazy......although I am sure it would look good if done right, just don't think my car is right for it.

                    Ren Red is a favorite of mine, never thought of Moreso, but have given the Ferrari Red a thought.

                    I want to go darker if anything, I have a white truck and it is a pain to keep clean....but when she is washed it does look nice. I'll keep that in mind when I go for quotes.

                    I love Steel Grey on M3s.....a very good option!

                    Vinyl has been crossing my mind, but until I get a quote I won't know which way I'll go as far as vinyl vs paint.

                          Very interesting color........I'll have to try and see a sample when I get back from the desert.

                          Pearl white has been thought about, I think every SC owner secretly wants that color. The only thing really stopping me is the price for going lighter, if I go darker less paint and primer and more cost effective.

                            Not a fan of crazy colors, or metallic shit when you have a stock bodied car. maybe if you were widebody and slammed. Just go for something simple.
