British Racing Green S13?

[AutoShadow]

My car's paint has been peeling pretty bad lately. I'm thinking about painting it a different color than its current red. Does anyone have a pictures of a S13 Hatch that's British Racing Green or Midnight Blue?

[zach-Ka]

British racing green would look very good IMO. I have no pictures though...

Yea, I was thinking the same thing. Just wanna see an example before I go ahead and start planning.

the factory dark green was nice/rare

but just claybar your car

a good wax it might not look so bad

I tried both a good wax and a claybar a few months ago, but didn't make a big difference. My clear coat is pretty much peeling off my car almost like it has sun burn. There was a factory green for the S13?

Hello!!!

Hey man, I'm a fan of your car. Think you can post some pictures of your car? Like some front views, maybe in sunlight?

Thanks!

And I'mma let you finish, but seafoam green is the best color of all time.

Thanks haha.This is about a year ago, lighting wasn't all that great so you can't really tell it's green.

Here's a few months ago, after it got repainted again, this time they put in tiny flakes or something.

I don't have many recent pictures of the front, sorry.

I'll post them if I find some.

, what color code did you use? Also, where did you get the paint? Thanks!

[Razi]

DH0 Juniper Green Metallic, it's the stock paint code, but the paint shop added something to the paint. Also, I used Urethane paint, it's more flexible and my fender can prove it! I've dropped so many tools on it I've lost count and it doesn't have a chip.

I got it painted at a place called OneDay Paint, really takes a few days to paint though. :P

i agree with above that seafoam green is the sexiest s13 color ever with doo doo brown interior ofcourse

Nice, if you don't mind, how did it cost you to paint it?

Thanks again for all your help!

Around $800 I believe, including fixing some minor dents.

Not bad at all, looks real good too. I might try doing the painting on my own in the summer, think I can purchase this paint from a paint shop? Or is it specifically through OneDay?

Thanks, once again.

[Razi]

If you take the paint code to a shop, they might be able to mix you up a batch.

Sweet, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go with your color. Thanks, Razi! If you ever take more pictures, can you post them up here?

[OM3GA]

Im more down for the TVR Racing green.

[AutoShadow]

OM3GA, I would be down for that green, too, if I had a drift car or something. Haha, the TVR pulls it off pretty well, might look good on someone's 240; just not mine.

[matt_240sx]

found a 240 with that similar tvr green color.

[AutoShadow]

So, I'm now considering going with a black, not a flat or satin black but a glossy black. Any thoughts on the black on black combination? And I've only been able to find pictures of 1 hatch with the same wheels as me and a black paint job. If anyone has more pictures of this setup, it would be greatly appreciated.

[OM3GA]

Gloss black paint and flat black wheels. Do green accents or something.

[Razi]

Glossy black + white or gold wheels.Sexy.
