No pics right now....I know flame on.

My car b4 the front end (I'm on the left

I want to keep the black hood but I'm thinking instead or painting the front end red to just spray paint the whole car another color.

I have a paint gun but I have no real paint experience plus I want the car painted b4 the 11th (Going to a fulltrack drift event @ Thunderhill) so I dont care if its just rattle canned.

I was thinking of painting it blue...what do you guys/gals think?

I never liked that my car was red it's kind of grown on me but not enough for me to not think twice about another color.

If anyone has pic of their cars rattle canned (not primer white or black) post em up I want some color ideas, I would also appreciate any brand of spray paint you'd recommend.

Thanks, Tim

interesting...I'm thinking a darker color would best because a crappy rattle can job would look better in a dark color opposed to a brighter one.

You think it matters?

All the same to me. A rattle can job for the most part, is going to look like a rattle can job.

Hey I love pignose but c'mon who doesn't want to have sex with this



for just a lip that is sex

pignose w/ pignose lip is overplayed. Very classy and simple but overplayed. I want something you don't see often and I don't know one person in Sacramento with this lip and not 1 drift event @ Thunderhill have I seen it.

Plus skirts and a wrap around bumper (can't recall name of bumper I was looking into) will look excellent with the lip
