Need to Paint my EG Hatchback (Need Help)?
My racecar will be needing a paintjob when it gets out the Chassis shop. If you can post pictures of hatchback and there colors it will be nice. I do not want a color that everyone has: Pictures of my car currently not updated yet: http://www.asianavenue.com/Members/M...ER=CiVicDrgRcR

Easy said than done, painted it hot pink. Nobody seems to have that as a race car color.
Nor am I'm trying to be funny either.

Re: Need to Paint my EG Hatchback (Civicdrgrcr)
how about that nasty lime green color that Kia uses. Or that puke yellow/green they also use. Or flip through a PPG color sample book. You might like some colors from old school Camaros, Novas, Mercedes, etc. How about a rootbeer brown from a Dodge Polara? I doubt there's too many civics running around with that one

Tried this, whats your top 4 favorite colors? Grab a pic of a hatch and start using different color scheme. Get ideas from Jap mags or websites. Reconstruct if something looks good. It easy to paint a car with one color, but sometimes a variety of color makes it worth while and different.
Good Luck!
And if you do make it big and the car becomes the 4 color scheme, I'll sh*t my pants. LOL

Don't paint it, lol. JUst start the body work and leave it outside in the rain and let it rust out.J/K. Don't go with a modern color. Everybody's throwing down Viper Blue, Mercedes Silver, whatever. How about Caddilac Diamond Whine? That's a dope color. How much you wanna spend? Some of these newer paints are $$$$$. Get an older color from PPG- be different.
