Anthracite....its still a toyota color so your keeping it in the family. Looks really unique and clean imo.

Im painting my wheels that color soon enough...

 

i agree black is a nice color, but i dont think it brings out the car espically with all the body linking and curves of the sc300, just my opinion

 

Well Ive narrowed it down to 202, 199, and 8L5. Of these 3 I like 199 and 8L5 the best. 202 is nice but Im not sure Im down with taking care of that color. 8L5 would be almost as much work tho. So im probably leaning towards 199. Prolly will get 199, but I will see how much money and time it would save to get 199 vs 8L5. If my guy is ok with the extra work in the price range we agreed on I will most likely get 8L5.

Thanks for the help guys! I will be sure to update this thread with some before pix as its going to the shop and after pix when the job is done!

 

Thanks again for the help deciding and for the replys eveyone!

I decided on Alpine Silver Metallic or 199! Car is coming along nicely. I never got pix of me towing the car to the shop. Was too busy cleaning up other ppls messes and getting pwned. But I did finally get the car to the shop at like 5:30pm that friday!

Went out to the paint shop today to give the man some more money and took some progress pix

here is the paint shop...out in a cow pasture 40 miles from my house


here is my old bromex bumper, my car isnt lowered and I never hit anything, thats damage from driveways and dips in the road



shaved antenna!

new core support installed

Gonna use an original 95 bumper that isnt pictured. Decklid and hood are SEIBON CF and will be painted. The antenna hole was filled with a piece of sheet metal then primed and sanded smooth. No body filler! Only issue atm is the driver side decklid hinge is buggered and isnt letting the decklid sit right. Other than that car is looking good. Progress is slow but I can wait. Its gonna be hawt!

 

ohh you picked alpine can't wait to see it finished im going to repaint my car comnig FEB and alpine was one of my choices so Ill get to see it on a 95 cause thats what i have too.

 

Same color unless your painting the jambs. Then I vote rsp!

 

I vote 202.

 

Last 2 posts = epic fail. Poll has been closed for almost 3 weeks. And I decided on the color almost 3 weeks ago as well. I posted an update which is why this thread got bumped. Some parts already have some paint on them even. L2read b4 posting imo.

 

I thought so too .


First SC300 on CL painted 1A1! I'll make a photo thread once I put it back together.

To the OP, nice choice with Alpine silver. It's probably one of the best looking colors for our cars ( Remeber JoshFSM's alpine silver )

 

Thanks for the response! Sexy car man! I love the older style bumper cover with no grille. And Anthracite is hawt!!!

 

Beautiful!! I love MSB!!

 

dude sick as hell! Love the color

 

Lol, MSB! Thanks guys, it was a hard pick over quicksilver fx.

 

Ummm... whats MSB? A paint color obviously, but whats the acronym mean?

 

Monkey Shiet Brown. It gives off a brown tint in the sun, so the Supra crowd gave it a fine nickname. lol
