This may sound strange on Driver but pick up the August issue of Hot Rod mag, there's a four page article on current paint trends. On page 37 there's
a blue pearl in the upper left hand corner that would look killer on a G! You
wouldn't have to worry about being a copy cat....

 

Just make sure you do the engine bay. IMO nothing worse than a great color with the engine bay nine miles off. I could live with a black under hood cause back in the day it was done a lot. Im a painter and wanted to do a color change but I dont wanna get into the death sentence of work to do a proper prep in there. I would pick something close and re jamb the car and leave the bay alone. You could kandy or pearl the body lines to create a color flop.

 

I found your paint!!! Check out this link - you can change the car's color anytime you want with the push of a button!

how about a smoked glass look?... I have no idea how to pull it off - but something like smoked clear corners - the entire car of course...

 

^^ is that illegal, crazy reflections FTL. (and really dangerous)

 

nope, it's not illegal... it illuminates amber and can be seen from quite a far distance (I think CFR requires 100 feet, which these do easily) that’s all the law requires... the reflection is because the pic is taken form about 6 inches away - its a side marker so there isn’t anything that will reflect in a danger to motorist...

Now if you are referencing danger form reflection if the entire car was painted like this?... I don’t know - actually I don’t think it reflects any more than a car with Zaino and a good detail.

 

i meant the entire car, lol.

 

+1

Le Mans sunset G???

 

well i work in a body shop and paint cars so im probably going to look through the color chips today and find something

 

British Racing Green!!!
soooo hawt

 

i thought rookie had his FX painted cobalt blue? I could be wrong tho...

i say go with like a midnight blue

 

^
^that is a hot color, but i dont think it will look as good on a g, than it does on an Aston Martin.

 

mmmm ur right, but you could try forest green (i ttink thats the color of the other car) i've yet to see a green G..not that i've searched for any tho

 

Id like to see a G painted some type of green... jdm G had a green G for a while and it looked ok...

 

you should go Laguna Seca Blue idk if you can get the paint though
i love that color and it would probably look sick on a G
