Paint suggestions?
Thursday, July 09, 2009 11:25 AM
Car was originally a show car in prime condition until I had it shipped home from its last expo. Needed body work and now going to get a fresh coat of paint. Any ideas? Don't want to be too flashy either.

paint it white since the engine bay already is and the scheme inside is blue and white. or maybe a two tone with blue and white.

Whoa, it that Ronnie's old cavalier?....If so, I remember when that thing was Indigo Blue..I would say all white or a white/blue two tone type of paint scheme...

I also like the thought of a white upper and blue lower 2 tone.

well i'll post a pic of what it used to look like back when it had the integra front end. personally i like the look of the cavi and felt no need to change that beautiful face. and i went with the boomex because it shows off the intercooler better than most. changes i have made from the car that Ronie used to have included shaving off the door handles inside and out, shaving the fuel door, shaving off the trunk lights, different hood, angel eyes headlights, and a new set of rims that i have yet to put tires on although i have them sitting right next to me (Goodyear Eagle F1 225/45R18). I've never met or talked to Ronie but he sold it to a guy I know who lives in Maine so it's coming back to the Chicago area for good. Oh and if anybody doubts it was his car... the second photo should speak for itself.

Ditch the bomex and get a nice import fighter front....then paint it all white or white and blue 2 tone.

haha does everybody hate he boomex that much? i could possibly lose the front, but cant lose anything else. the rest of the body has been molded to 1 piece from front to rear going all the way around. and i think the suggestion I'm liking most is the blue from the bmw M3
