mat black for me. will be spraying my scirocco and mates 106 (track day toys) in this later in the year. will be doing some nice red detailing too.

if pastel is in, then what about the pastel yellow that was a ltd edition colour for the classic impreza. black and white graphics to finish it off.

i think it was on the sport models? and wasn't there a pastel green that was a ltd edition colour? should tie in with some nice white and silver graphics.

how about starting off dark blue and as you go from front to back have it change from dark blue and then getting lighter blues until half the boot and back end is white.

a bit like a very hot flame

or start a kawasaki green at the bottom and then as it comes up the car turn it to bright yellow on the roof

Can you spray the whole car in a cabon fibre effect?

i'm sure i've seen it done before, using stenciles.

my mrs saw it and said i should respray it that colour in real life.

i think it'd look good if it had white and black abw graphics on it and the new kit.

vtec to turbo - no point in spraying it on, just get the car wrapped. it's a bit of a blue peter sticky back plastic job and would cost a couple of hundred but it would look very cool if done properly.

abw if have you got a pic of the whole side of the car once in primer so all one shade i'll have a go at putting it in different colours for you so you can get an idea. if you want me to have a go mail it to mneame@aol.com
