well Im paintin the gta. Gonna go with a ram air 2 hood and paint the gold crosslace wheels black. I like bright orange or red, a screamin bright color but cant seem to find any bright enough. I'm spraying it myself just cant find a damn color that is bright enough. I think SOM is a little too dark, looks almost brownish to me and I have also looked at sunburst orange metallic which is ok but still a little dark. Any suggestions? I'm open to other colors also, pearls and such....I like dark blues and greens....just dont want a run of the mill color...something bright or something darker and deep. Any suggestions, maybe a color scheme or such that has never been done? I do plan on keeping the gta emblems on it. I thought about getting a screaming chicken on the hood but it just doesnt seem like one belongs there, any ideas guys?

not sure for the orange paint, but with tri-stage candies you need a basecoat, a candy and clear
my supplies for candy apple red were upwards of 1000, so it's not cheap
...all depends on how much you use (though color varies in price as well)
give them a call
