Here is a stock purple haze paint job with some decals.

When I firs bought the car I was sure I would remove the decals but they kinda grew on me. I like them now.

Thanks dude, mine is stock dark bright teal mettalic(37U) bright silver pearl with blue green pearl ghost stripes, and lots of clear, all shot in ppg including primer.
Extremely happy with the combo, especially the ghost stripes. Once i get it finally polished and waxed good to get rid of the minor swriling i have from teh color sanding and stuff since its 4.5 months old

Cost to spray, 3k
body parts, hood, new bumper and gfx, spoiler $1600
and it was worth every penny

Check out my cardomain site since i dont have any pics on this desktop, page 4 are a few months old, page 6 are with my good new camera

Check out the first 2 albums under the iroc gallery.

http://www.omnipotent-goku.com/iroc/gallery/irocalbum

Rare, unique, wow and tight rides..

Both of those sub-albums have some pretty smooth paint schemes.

so far I'm really diggin' 91Niterida's paint! I love those wheels too. Those are my favorite "Camaro" wheels.

I am biased though.

Sorry everyone, but anyone that just wants to see any pic of a thirdgen for paint ideas has to be closed. For ideas, please refer to the Reader's Rides section, Car Domain, or Google. omnipotentgoku's picture gallery is also a good place to look. Requests like these must be more specific to remain open and useful.

Any questions or comments, feel free to PM me or post your suggestions in the Problems / Help / Suggestions / Comments forum.
