OK guys here it is . My car is like almost 4 yrs old and the paint is completly faded . almost no shine to it at all . so i am thinking about painting it a completely different color this is kinda the color i want to go with . but it is going to be more metallic and more of a custom orange. just for the sack of showing you what i mean here is a car that has a close to the color i want .

id say pearl white... white FTW, but metallic orange is hot too... what ever u want just make sure u like it,
there was an orange"ish" color in the first year or two of the 3 and the 6, forgot the exact name of it but i really liked that color, maybe more of a copper actually.
 
I love an orange car, but not as bronse as the pic above, more on the spicy msp side of things would be nice.

yeah thats what i am leaning towards to . it wont be for like 3 months but this is my plan i have a shop ready to do all the work . fix my imperfections , minor dents , stress cracks in my body kit etc.
i have seen his work b4 great job . so i trust it will come out right not to mention he said that the color i want is his favorite color so he would put special care into it . I want something to be different and unique
something that if i was at a show someone would be like wow that is different but wow it looks good .!

paint it this orange and add some candy to it, or just leave it like it is.

that car looks fast just sitting there.

not so much spicey. or the copper.
white looks good. But the porsche color isnt bad. You might have to change the wheel colors also? or stick with the black?

wow...i'm looking at 4600.00....including door jambs, fixing body work, installing roof scoop... ..dunno. my car is of course, black and blue/yellow/primer...so they have a bit of work to do anyways.
 
i doubt his is with the jambs and engine bay and the little things since its white anyways. probably would blend in ok
 
i really only wanted to spend max 2k when i redo mine, i want a lightly deeper blue. i'll also need them to mold my rear lip to the bumper

we'll c when the time comes

i'm sure if you wanted to you could get your stock white shining again. Assuming you're not actually missing paint in places or stuff like that. If its just dulled, that can be taken care of.

If you are set on repainting, though, i vote for some form of orange!!!! But not spicy. Both because then it wouldn't be so unique, and also because spicy can look kinda ugly at certain angles in the sun (at others its just awesome though).

If i ever repaint my car, i'm taking it to a guy a know who does lots of custom motorcycle work. It would probably cost me near 5 grand, but it would be soooooooo nice. I've seen his work and it just leaves me in AWE.
