Default Getting new paint.....

I think I have decided on my new color for my car......

I am going charcoal/graphite metallic grey with the black stripe on the hood(same as it is now) and the black moldings still.

The body workwill be my winter project, then it will get sprayed next spring. I am a little excited.

How do you guys think it will look?

I think that will look sweet. And it will match the rims great.

The car looks really good in your sig. Nice Fox. I am finishing paint on mine now. Should be done next Friday. Changing the color has been alot more work than I anticipated (sp?). Door Jambs, Under hood....blah. Vapor Mist off of the 08 lineup. Are you going Mineral Gray? Should be really nice.

I haven't picked the accual color yet, I am getting a book of color samples tonight so I can pick.


My car doesn't really need new paint, there are just a few things I want fixed, so I decided to do the whole thing and figured might as well do a color change also. The only thing that will stay blue for now will be the engine bay, but only untill I have to pull the engine, then I will smooth it and paint it.

I think you should leave it as it is. I also do not think the black stripe on the hood would look very good on a charcoal colored car.

too... import
