Im getting my carlo painted. Its blue right now, and can be seen in my signature.

Im wondering if i want...

metallic whitish racing stripes and a silver body kit paint job.
only stripes
only the body kit painted.

(Its a 2001)


Any ideas?

 

Looks shinny from your pic why do you need a paint job?

 

Very rusty on the other side.

 

OK Superior Blue? keeping the same color is the easiest and cheapest way to go.

 

You could get a set of ss deck stipes done in a white pearl over your blue and it would give you a different look. PPG has a newer vibrance pearl the number is PRLX2 it is a crystal white pearl with a really bright face. Im not sure how it would look over blue though.They make many differnt color that you could try.I just painted mine about a month ago and I could not figure out how to lay out a set of deck stripes on the car and make them look right. Its a tough car to make them look good on because there is no really good place to end them on the trunk and make it look look finished. If you really want a set of stripes I would get a test panel sprayed in the color of your car and that way you can put several different combinations of colors to see how they will look without having to spray your car and then end up not liking it. Also If you do decide to get some I would be at the body shop when they are laying them out to make sure that you are going to like the way they do it. As for the silver body kit I really dont much care for the look of it. If you think about it You have a dark blue car and your thinking about white deck stripes and then silver around the bottom your starting to get too many colors on it. But if you did the body kit in a silver and did a set of stripes in silver they would go together alot better. IMO I would paint the body kit the color of the car. But I like to keep everything simple and clean.
