I was in a accident need to repaint car again. I'm thinking of lexis titanium sonic?
I painted my car black but got in a accident now will have to fix it and repaint it again. But I'm thinking of a silver or titanium sonic / light gunmetal? The black was nice but would show and hard to maintain anything. Swirls, dirt, etc.
I like lexis sonic titanium but not sure if it will look good on a 1985 camaro z28. Any one have any examples?
I'm also open to a candy blue or red. Open to suggestions. I have 20inch irocs on mine as well..

Think it would look good, but yeah, really hard to imagine.
Maybe someone with good phooshop skills could render it, but with the shades and how it gets darker with bends, it might be tough.
I would suggest starting with an image from another Camaro taken with a lot of shading and it high quality. Then see if someone with photoshop can adjust the hugh and color till it looks like the Lexus color.
This is what I did, when I got my car painted almost 20 years ago. I plan to do the same thing again, when I paint it next year.

What color are you thinking? and yes good idea. Where can i find someone that does that? Hiw much do they usually charge thanks. I was thinking the lexus sonic titanium with the hood inserts black not sure if gloss black or matte black? Any opinions would be great. I'm also open to acura candy blue

I have had fellow TGO members do some simply photoshop for me for free.
Back 20 years ago, I had someone even photoshop the rims I wanted so I could get a feel, add a roll cage and even add a cowl hood.
All just in photoshop. It didn't look perfect by far, but if you squint, you could get a really good idea of what the car would look like when it was done.
Maybe now adays you can use AI image generators or something. Not sure. Worth a shot. There may also be free software you can use, and watch some YouTube vids to learn how.
As for me, I am on the fence for my show car. Maybe something crazy like highlighter green, but will most likely go with something simple like Audi white. Looks like paper. Since I will be painting the car myself and have never done something that extensive before. Solids (no flake or candy) are very forgiving if you make a mistake and need to sand down and try again.
