Paint me?

Wednesday, November 12, 2008 6:37 PM

Hey guys & girls.
I'm looking to get some paint soon. And also ready to get my wheels & valve cover powdercoated.
Getting frustrated on color choices for both.
For the paint i want to stay in the dark family so i dont have to pay that much extra to repaint it allll. I really like blue. Was thinking some sort of Midnight blue. But for the longest time i've wanted Black with blue flakes, but i saw it on a car a few weeks ago and i was disappointed in the lack of flake and that concerned me if i go that route. So i'm lost. Any ideas?

And for the wheels. They're ready for powder coat along with my valve cover. Torn on color choices.
Don't know weather to go black or matching the blue on my interior for the valve cover (and i may do the intake tube also). I do know tho that i want the engine bay painted to match whatever the car is.
On the wheels i don't want black or any shade of bronze. Just not sure if i should go darker like gun metal, or more of a silver-ish tone.
Anyone willing to play around with options for me? I'd greatly appreciate it!
I have bigger pictures and can even take better ones with different angles if you need them, just let me know.
Thanks in advance for any help with this!

Here's a pic of my mirrors that i painted with pretty much the amount of flake i'm looking for but a much darker black.

Geeziz Boozted! Thanks!
Lol
How bout a darker grey? Got an even darker blue?
I kinda dig that flat-ish blue in the 4th picture.

Lmao at the purple, kinda pimp!

Oh, and i like the wheel color on the blue one on the top 2nd one over ... is that gun metal or a greyish?

Anyone wanna take a crack at the valve cover/ intake tube?
