Trying to get my car painted pretty soon but can't afford a candy apple red paint job. So I was wondering if there are any similiar alternatives to this color. Any suggestions?

 

drippin' stains

 

Just get a deep metallic red.

 

strawberry candy red

 

if you want candy, you gotta have it, nothing will substitute well enough. "candy paint drippin off the frame"

 

how much did it run?

 

~3500 with jambs

 

Someone post a pix of plusone ek candy paint.

Well if you got hook up with a painter, it could be less.

impulse red pearl from newer corolla's...when clean those pearls will sparkle like gold

 

My budget is around 2,000. Thanks for that color I'll look into it since I valet cars. I see lots of different shades of red but cant find anything I really like.

 

bump any other alternatives?

 

Ford has Sangria Red Pearl...
That mazda metallic is nice as well..
Look into OE colors(they're cheap) vs custom mix codes...

Any other dark rich reds out there that yal suggest? Kind of leaning towards this color but not sure.
