Painting thoughts
well during school i've been bored so i played around a little with photoshop and my car. this is an idea of what i wanted the color to paint my car... the color looks flat but yea really all i could do with. the true colors are jet black and like a candy green.
one hood is for the z28 hood thats on my car.. with the two racing strips
and the single one is for a ss hood that i do not have.

Re: Painting thoughts
I'd go with the first pic. Painting the GFX would be too much IMO.
What's all that white stuff on the ground? It was 80* here today.

Re: Painting thoughts

Re: Painting thoughts
yea i might have to do that but i want wider rims like the ones you have on your car.... or on mula's but i wish they made the ones i have now 16' and wider but they don't make them.... i might do the same thing like i have but i need your rims when ever you give me your pictures of your car. and what will i drive on? lol i need something to drive on you don't have spares. and you can you sand blast them at your shop? and you clear coat them to?

Re: Painting thoughts
wow you took my idea sort of. My camaro is going to be black and green. but I am going to sort of have the two tone theme going bottom black and top of the fenders up green with black accents also going to have the seats reuholtered green with black inserts and the rest of the interior black. Looks good though keep it up.
