Smile Paint the lex coupe

Recently i'm thinking about painting my SC but having problems makin up my mind on the color.
so i hope i can get some ideas from SC owners that either painted their car or just wanna share some ideas.

The car is pearl white right now, i'm thinking of either sand it down a little and add a layer of blue pearl on it or just change it to something else. I was thinking super sonic blue but i dont know if dat will look right on the SC

I know this been brought up before but i'm new to the site n hope yall can help me out...................

oh one more thing the cheapest body kit i can find for this car is the kaminari kit. I only seen pictures of it so if anyone has it or seen it on da road lemmie kno if it's worth it. cause other than that all the ones i've seen are directly imported from japan for 2-3 even up to 4 gzzzzz

There are alternate solutions to the kaminari kit, theres veilside, bomex and erebuni all located in the US

www.veilsideusa.com
www.bomexaero.com
dont remember erebuni address, they should all be just as expensive as kaminari kit

Hope it helpls

To be honest I love "pearl" cars!!! However, if you change the color, make SURE to do it right! That means door sills, inside trunk, inside engine bay, around the inner door, inside sunroof opening etc...

*Make sure the paint shop does it right!!! If not it is going to look very *****TY...:eek:

hey mark, You've been rackin up that overtime huh? hmm that blue has a real nice color, but remember that your spending a lot more money if your changing to a different color~ (door panels, adding pearl) and like what people said, make sure they don't do a ****ty job.. cuz colors like blue, it'll definetly be noticeable if they mess it up. You saw how bad my car was... paint started chippin off.. spent too much money for no reason. I'd stick with like championship white.
