Okay so I posted this in the appearance board, but no one seemed to want to help me, or give me an opinion. This summer I am going to be getting into the appearance modification of my camaro and have a few questions about paint. I plan on buying a TGO hood, 5" Iroc spoiler, 91-92 gfx, roh wheels, and a set of lowering springs. So I want to keep it red and really like the deep wet look all the time, if I had some pearl put into the paint would it take away that look? Also, how would red pearl look? Finally, I know that I am going to get a black grill and paint the headlight pockets black, but does anyone have any other ideas for paint that would look good?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

THANK YOU

 

As for the headlight pockets, i did that on my friends 90 Iroc, what i did was just taped off round the area that wasnt gonna be painted and got some fine sand paper and sanded the pocket area down, then got some paint thinner on a rag and whiped off the xtra paint dust, then get some General Purpose grey primer, and primer the pocket, let it dry, give it another coat, let dry, lightly sand it smooth, whipe off dust, and get some Dupli Color Semi Gloss black, and do a couple coats with that, and there you go your set, use Dupli Color on the grill too, you choose how gloss u want for it, not sure about the pearl in your red paint though, i would imagen it giving it a peachesh tint, but i dunno

 

Any red car I have seen with pearl in it has a pink'ish cast to it in the sun . IMO Bright Red+pearl = metallic rose pink

Bright red , imo neways , is just one of those color you leave alone .

 

not sure if i would want a pink thirdgen

 

No a pink thirdgen is definetely a no no.:nono:

Thank you for the input.
