Bright colour combinations are sooooooooooooo 2008 ;)

[djmartin]

Bright colour combinations are sooooooooooooo 2008 ;)

and so true lol.


why you think on my R33 im only going blue and even having my calipers black. only place you will see a different colour will be the engine bay as im having most the stuff powder coated yellow. so I can go with a yellow,blue,polished/stainless steel theme only in the engine bay!

I could have easily choosen white with the blue but that has been done to death. antherite and blue to standard looking these days.


colour combo's are not as simple as people are making out.

it can either make a car look like a bag of poo or make it look aggressive the idea is to try and get that balance!!!!!!

[craig180]

As above. I've seen so many abortions of cars that have tried to pull off the colour combo.

My new project will also be having silver wheels

[Stissy]

go stealth...
keep everything black, black alloys, black tints, black badges etc
then just paint your calipers yellow and have a yellow magic tree.... looks amazing


OR if you really want to go for a colour. black and white could look sweet too

[brogan5050]

ye i thought about black and white, but i want somethin no ones got.

probs be hard to think of something but i will lol

[djmartin]

onyl way to do that is do what im doing on the R33.

CUSTOM PAINT!

when I mean custom I mean custom not some off the shelf house of kolor scheme.

I mean starting from scratch orr at least getting a base colour down and then adapting the paint to your tastes. but then again you need to be friends with a paint specialist or at least tell a local specialist of your idea's and intentions!

[ward88t]

go black and green http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy151/chimp68/IMG_0025-1.jpg

[djmartin]

that idea has been done ot death aswell.

You bought a saxo and want to modify it different to everyone else...

can anyone see the problem with this? lol

(probs not so i'll explain)

99.9% of things have been done.
bright colours arent really that cool (IMO)
i could go on... :D

[canaryvtr]

Lime green or purple would look nice and black and yellow do go imo! cos my cars yellow n black! blehhhh

hence why me say onyl way forward is a true 100% custom paint job to the extent the paint shop asks you to make up your own paint code!.

That is sexy but yeah agree need a deeper shade or metallic :)

[shaun5door]

my gf and i are starting to make her gti black and purple she uses chrysler crazy plum that looks cool but instead of doing the outside black and something why dont you have stealth outside so black most part and smoothed and then have a competly diff colour interior like red interior blue or yellow etc etc yeah its been done before but its a lot of customising and would look neat and tidy once youve done it.
think purple buckets!

[craig180]

in other words your body was awake after wii fit but mentally you turned into a zombie????? :P lols

anyways getting back on topic I suppose lol.

purple and gold go well if done correctly.
white or black goes with any colour (but its been done to death lol)

[auds]

Hmm no my body was killing after wii fit haha :)

Anyway, yeah purple and gold, but I think purple and silver go better......if I had a white saxo I would love to do white with dark purple wheels and interior, yummy :)

[Bound]

i was doing black and red, but not sure if i want to now.

can anyone recomend a nice bright colour that goes with black?

Black and red (don't do the wheels red though, that would look ghastly), black and white (white wheels look sick ;D), black and orange, or black and yellow (this is Andyc123's);
