hello boys and girls and grown up people

the time has come to spray my beloved bravo (in about 2 weeks) but now im wondering what colour..would like to keep it standard but the car is far from it so might aswell change the colour a slight bit.

was thinking mercedes korallenorange, its like a pearl colour, with an orange flick, really nice colour.

or go standard but add a little bit red to brighten the look up some more..

and suggestions?

If they didnt want it stripping they shouldnt have used nuts and bolts

That blue/silver pearlescent that alfa do.

yeh nice colour but ideally i wanna keep it a red colour...so burgandy or something like that

Boreal red is a real nice colour

its also pretty dull, might look nicer when its polished up as i never polished mine before i started spraying her.

there is a boreal bravo i pass on my work ruite everyday and im too fond of it...think it can look brighter though...

Hi saun
I really like heraldic blue, the ford ST orange and that really chrisp white audi use.

shaun...You wana keep it similar to yours but you want a bit of red to brighten it up?

Why dont you go with my idea as said ages ago...Candy Apple Red...Spanking mate

A mate sprayed an mr2 with a kit on that colour...looked gorg

or what about that Nissan Micra colour..its like a purple with orange flip

problem with most of these flip paints, alot of work involved....u have to spray the car black then add all the colours on top...pluss most of them look tacky as ****!

Enamel Red is the way to go - a nice deep solid that will look a treat when polished and waxed.

you dont HAVE to spray the car black, you could do it over a white base coat or a grey base coat, it just will vary witht he end coulor. but the car defo need to be all 1 colour. dont go for flip, its out of fasion now.

white is the way forward.

orange looks a bit cheesy after a while dont get me wrong looks nice, but just cheesy after a while, suits the focus though.

candy apple is nice but again ul have to spray the car silver. best coulor is like a champaigne white/ cream. then ger some electric blue flake in your lacquer- sexy as!

orange... cheesey... you're cracking me up

well each to there own... your anon's crack me up 2 how u hvae no balls or spine to even put your name...

but yes to me orange looks cheesy on a modified car. i see a modified car now in orange and its like.. whats new?.. its to be expected. ill try find a pic of the creamish and blue i was talking about

I'm still sticking with Azzuro Zenith

I'd say apply a colour that is classy rather than boy-racer. Nothing wrong with the latter, but the whole subtle colour scheme works well.

The nuvola white looks stunning on the 147 GTA maybe that??

Candy apple red would 'pop' as they say.

candy apple red over chrome

Love that candy apple red
