Whew! Been away for a couple of hours to fix minor stuff on the car
Tomorrow I;ll be choosing the interior materials
The interior on my car's going to be pretty spartan... plain and simple black or beige
already done with the headlights and other electricals
i fixed the wiper motor finally
now comes one of the most crucial questions all car owners have to face
what color do i want my car to be?
I chose red and I'm gonna have a darker shade as a lining from the trunk to the rear wheel well to make the car looking more sleek
I have a couple of weeks to save up for it so I'm pretty excited and also wondering if i really should paint it red or something else
If you were in my shoes, what color would you paint your car?

A nicely shined light green or apple green color is so awesome. I am now imagining a cool convertible in light green hahaha.. Nice colors :)

In my opinion, I would really prefer to have my car painted with simple color. But I would prefer dark colors like black, or dark blue. But, white could be something good also. I am not really a picky person when it comes to car paint. I prefer the colors which are not too bright, because I do not enjoy getting too much attention on the road.

Bro, a really nice thing about black is, it is sexy too. Plus, if done right like a candy black or shiny black it would be really really cool and nice. Matched with chrome rims WOW! it would turn heads 100% sure. But, what car are you planning to repaint?

I'll color it black all over so ill be so mysterious and very stealthy in the night. And black is my favorite color.

My favorite color is actually aquamarine and I really thought that would be a good color for a car but then I change my mind. I think it does not look good for a car maybe for clothes or other stuff. So now, I like the color black. Simple but like mysterious and like something bad.

i think you should paint it something unique. I like red cars, but statistics show they get pulled over more. if you like red...paint it red....but I am the kind of person that would rather have a color most people don't have.

I would probably choose metallic crimson red because it just looks sleek. It is classic at the same time elegant. Not to mention that it works well in all occasions and in all moods.
I would not go for black though, it is quite dangerous at night, studies have shown that black cars are most likely involved in accidents than other colored cars. Plus, the fact that black cars absorb heat faster than white cars.

Were I in your position, I would paint the car, a dark green, with the multicolor paint for an accent, I would also include gold fleck in the paint, to make the car sparkle under the sun.
That is me though, I would accent, the back third of the car, on a downward angle sloping towards the front of the doors.
Best wishes on your restoration.

the downward angle lining is definitely part of my plan to make the car look sleeker

i think I will paint it with blue, my favorite color; or with grey, because grey is a nice color for cars; or I might color it white, so that it wouldn't be very hot, because the color white doesn't attract heat, unlike dark colors (black).
