what paint scheme is this!?

[topless_240]

I want to paint my car this same color combo, and I was wondering what color codes they were especially for the gold color on the bottom. Also does anyone know where to buy that black tape that seperates the colors, and are on all 240s??

[Black on Gold]

OEM Paint scheme

[topless_240]

do you know where I can get the color codes for it?

[Gabes13]

Electric tape. Home Depot.

[topless_240]

haha i was waiting for that answer, but yea electric tape is not nearly the same material I want the real deal stuff unless it's expensive as hell, which i doubt it is, then i'll get electric tape lol

[OutToWinPAHC]

Blue masking tape and black rattle can for the line

[topless_240]

lol yea that works too

[topless_240]

But Idk if I am going to do this paint scheme for sure (I'm really leaning towards it) It's either that or like a darker red, like a nice cherry red, but not too dark kinda like this:



VS.



what you guys think??

[ZX88]

one color is always better.

[topless_240]

yea that's what a few people have told me, I like the red a lot, but it's just something about that white and gold with the bronze wheels, I think i like it the most because it is an oem silvia color

[keith0486]

coupes look sexy two tone if done right that is and not 2 random colors they gotta go some what together.

[topless_240]

yea I have seen other two tone coupes but this is like the only color combo that really just is like to me. I like it a lot, i want to do that color combo with either some 5zigens, or p45s. Or the red, and idk what rims yet, i was thinkin some xxr 002's red ones, but i know those wheels aren't the best in the world haha

[topless_240]

deff going with that two tone, please someone I need those color codes, I hate to get the wrong thing and it look like a**.

[adrianfromthecastle]

[topless_240]

Yea I've looked at that before but that color combo isn't at the bottom with the other two tones

[Somnambulist513]

It's considered blasphemy to paint a non two tone with two tone colors...

Just letting you know.

I think you mean sacrilege, blasphemy is spoken and doesn't refer to objects.

As far as color combo, it looks like a pearl white top, bronze bottom, with a black line, like they said before to get the line you just tape if off and spray over the white where you want the line

[topless_240]

yea that's what I'm going to do just paint the line, but I think it might be the champagne gold on the bottom and idk what white is on the top, it's white but it has like a creamy color to it

[jeff420]

ivory white or pearl white would look good with the champagne gold.

[Lev_96_240sx]

The reason I think that first car has bronze on it is because of a few reasons:1. The car isn't jdm so the paint scheme isn't original on that car, hence not necessarily oem paint2. The paint matches the wheels and the wheels look like they are bronze.3. Champagne gold is lighter than that, my s14 is champagne gold and it's at least 4-5 shades lighter.

As far as the white is concerned, pearl white seems to fit the bill the best. It has a hint of yellow that the ivory white doesn't seem to have from what I saw at least on the new GTR.

Too much two-tonw hate up in here. Anyways i got my striping done professionally by a guy who does it for dealerships.

[Trigga]

I believe and with knowledge from Gran Turismo, its "warm white two tone".

[topless_240]

I know that it's an oem paint scheme look at jeff420's sig, he has a silvia front end in that color

Haha Gran Turismo saves the day! 4 was so good i hope 5 don't let me down.

Edit* Thanks for that chart adrian ill have to bookmark this thread cause i was looking all over for that a little while ago.

I have a silvergreen/gray pig coupe. I hate it i want a paintjob/chuki conversion but its just my daily while i fix the hatch in sig. I like two tones just not with green....especially faded silver green. I only like gray black and white cars, colored cars are too flashy. Thats why i wanted that ^ chart so i could respray mine gray.

Well I found out that it is called warm white two tone but I still can't find the codes anywhere, this is frustrating

[topless_240]

yooo jeff240 man, do you own the car in your sig?? If you do look under that hood and get those paint codes for me man, you'd be a life saver!

[kc240guy]

[topless_240]
