Default Anybody want to paint my 67?

Hey guys, I dont have a very good picture of my car unfortunetely but this is what I have, and the porsche is the color I am looking to paint it. If possible can you throw on some black bullits with a chrome lip, 17-18s as well?

much appreciated!

Any black accent you want to throw in feel free, artists rendering. I am probably going to paint the tail panel black and quite probably the hood (or 90% of it, but with a red border) black.

thanks

I played with your pics a bit. Unfortunately, nothing worth actually posting. Thing is, with that paint job, the difference between your car and the Porsche isn't so much about color as it is about the reflective nature of the metallic paint. Not something that can be easily reproduced with a photochop.

I'm curious to see if anyone else has more success.

I will work a little something up for ya, I wont be able to use those pics tho as they are way to small for me to work with. I will find a 67 coupe online and work with it, unless you have some hi res pics that you can send.

here's something i came up with; it's not too different, but it does have the wheels, and the 'red' is a little more deeper in tone

i was looking a little on porsche's website, and my guess would be 'ruby red metallic' (don't quote me on this, but it looks like the code is 'L2')

That thing is just slopped together, it dosent even have your hood on it yet. Tell ya what, find a hi res pic of any 67 that you like the angle of the shot. Google image it and go to seacrh settings or what ever and only look for 800 and above, preferrably in the thousands. But I f you find a pic at the angle you want to see the car I will whip you out a smoking version of it. Give me details you want, and what type hood, bumper, you know every detail you can think of as to make the perfect 67 coupe in your eyes. Is the color in that one above close? I kinda see a little more orange/copper in the porsche. Any way get back at me.
