in need of a paint job and can't decide...

[steffenaj14]

so i'm thinking about doing a dark dark grey. darker than titanium.. and with matt black in places like the hood, roof, and other places maybe.. but here are some examples maybe?? any opinions? the last picture of the old dodge is an example of matt black on regular paint

the new subaru dark grey is toooo hott

 

[steffenaj14]

you think i could pull it off on a protege?

 

[719prottege]

hell yes. with a cf hood and trunk i would say...

 

[steffenaj14]

lol with the money i'm throwin up for a paint job i dont even know if i'll have money for gas. i'm thinkin matt black hood, roof, and middle of spoiler and black rims obviously

 

[719prottege]

that sounds good too, or just no spoiler...

dont go wingless, ive never liked that look, but i say the matt hood is a deff, what i would do with the rest is get a double reverse cowel hood and make the outter edges color matched and the inner part where the cowel is make that matte too, not too keen on the trunk though, it reminds me of a CF trunk and im not a fan of those at all

Have you thought about flat black or matte black....

personally i can't stand two-tone paint BS... always looks like crap IMO.

but that subaru darkkkkkk gray color would look excellent on a MSP, def better than titanium

 

[steffenaj14]

yeah i agree with the dark gray subi paint..
and thecrash91.. you should post a picture of that hood you're talking about.

i'm definitely not going wingless. imo it looks like a regular protege.

but a flat black would be different. something i doubt anyone has ever done... making it something i'd like to do lol

 

[719prottege]

Yea flat black would be cool

 

[719prottege]

My first protege was flat black. But didnt look very good

 

[VIPMSP]

^ some kid on here just posted his freshly painted flat/"matte" black, can't find the pic tho for some reason

 

[steffenaj14]

Well the car itself is gonna be the same as the subaru. Maybe darker. But I'm thinking of making the middle part of the hood, roof, and middle of the spoiler matte black.. Instead of the all so popular cf or regular metallic black

 

[VIPMSP]

could look pretty good... def unique!

 

[steffenaj14]

either that or white.. white is sick looking on these cars i think

 

[steffenaj14]

this....

 

[super1chow]

either that or white.. white is sick looking on these cars i think

I agree White looks super sick!

 

[steffenaj14]

brightly powder coated rims????? lol like the porsche

 

[SCMP3]

I think he was referring to the paint lol I've gone back and forth about painting my msp white but idk...I really like the titanium gray..
