Fresh Paint GTA pics ?? Please post
I've been searching around looking for pics of GTA's or TA's with fresh professional paint in order to give me an idea what colour to paint mine. Currently it's black on tan.. I'm thinking either the same, Deep red, or Gunmetal. Thinking the rims will be GTA gold too.
Open to all ideas.. please post what you have..
Attaching what i have to work with. lol
Thanks

Paint it black again... Black is the best color for 3rd gen T/As, especially GTAs. Flame red metallic comes in next, followed by white in my book.

I have to agree paint it black again and get some gold wheels, probably wouldn't hurt to get some matching tan leather T/A seats also and she will look amazing again.

funny.. that's the picture of the black GTA that I was using to base my decision on. I am just a bit worried about the upkeep on black. Swirl marks show up so easily.
I put '02 camaro leathers in the car but I'd much sooner find a tan set of TA's. I have cloth 6way TA's with "TransAM" embroidered on the headrest but although not ripped, they are past their prime on cushion and are faded. Anything special done to the black or just chevy black and lots of clear?

i love the black GTA's. i used to own a black monte carlo which was in mint condition when i got it. all you have to do is make sure to keep it fairly clean, take care of the paint, i.e. wax and polish. and be particular on how you wash your vehicle. black is harder to take care of, but it totally worth it if you can.

I'm kinda in the same boat as you. While black does look the best is requires more work than I really care to do. I can't stand it when I take my car to the wash, come home leave it outside for maybe 15 min and it's all dusty and my paint is far from mint.
As for the rest of the car I love the black on black look. I'd trade u my gold spokes in a heartbeat for the black ones. Never really did like the gold look.
