New paint Color

[EP3DEMIK510]

Sup EpHatchers!
Planing on Painting My car.Ep is currently black.Need some Opinions help me find a color.I wanted to go wit something Unique.So far wanted to go with Porsche Macadamia metallic or a Some type of orange?

[urthworm]

Ive been playing with some colors on the ep3 with gran turismo 5 and the metallic orange that the nissan 350z come in looks SOOOO GOOOD! Also did one with the plymouth prowler gold.. that one looks really good too.

If you dont have the game i can do some photo shoots and post some pics if youd like.

[RedSiBaron]

Paint it 80s porsche brown

[Tokin_Buds]

Imola Orange Pearl..No doubt!

A member on here had that color before and it was the illest looking EP Ive ever seen hands down.. and I by miracle got the Imola Orange Pearl paint chip on Gran Turismo 5 and it looks stunning in the game too!

If I remember correctly, that member had an 02/03 JDM Bumper + Airwalker lip + 04/05 CTR grill. That set up was TITS!

Yup!!! But those are some serious shoes to fill. Moon's candy red is my favorite hands down. Jade green off the rsx would be beautiful. JADE, not sage.


I remember that car with the sportmaxx wheels, weds are waaay better!!! Damn!

[urthworm]

Eps just seem to go real well with that color

[ep3jd]

^^^ Seriously

[Tokin_Buds]

I think an all Spoon blue EP looks real nice too, there is a pic of one somewhere on this site, Im sure someone saved it..

Are you being serious?

[EP3DEMIK510]

Hahahaha Kinda.

[EP3DEMIK510]

can you show me the pic? or where to find it? i was trying to find the paint code?

[urthworm]

So i did a couple colors but they pretty much look exactly the same to me. I probably have to mess with the lighting to bring out the diff metallics. I tried to find the laguna seca blue but i couldnt find the bmw in the used car garage. Either way this color looks pretty good on the ep.

Some kind of dark green like Palm Green Pearl (G90P-1)

If/when I need to get my car painted, its probably going to be Pontiac Spruce Green:

Looks great, how much did the paintjob cost you? And did they do the door jambs/engine bay? Also did they take out the interior and motor?

[ep3jd]

Paint it whatever color orange the newer honda elements come in

Yeah, I know. I was going for the USDM look, but they only have the Type Aarrr in the game so I used the only body kit that had the USDM bumpers. :msmile:

[reinaldo]

That classic red color really looks cool.

[bluebullitt2003]

here is a picture of the orange we painted my sisters mustang. its a stock color from dodge. the nice thing about having a stock color is that we can go to the dealership and order a small touchup bottle of paint for 10 bucks if she ever gets a rock chip. the color is called "go-mango"

Paintjob cost us 2800, I have had more than 10 paint jobs on previous projects and this job was the best with exception of my bike that the same guy did......yes all jambs were painted all the glass was pulled. Also all the carbon parts hood hatch spoiler and front lip were new in box but I had them all sanded and shot with plenty of clear to prevent fading. I did not spray the bay cuz car was previously nhbp so left the bay all black.

I work at M1 Autobody, if you need a complete paint job. I'll even give you my commission. It's not a lot, but, come in for a quote, I'll take care of you. Not sure if you're still looking for a color to paint... but I've narrowed mine paint choices down to 2 colors. Pm me for paint advice/suggestions.
