Paint my car!!
Ok, well I'm all kitted up and whatnot. No pics yet, but I need to decide on a color. I was 100% set on black, but now my father had to open his mouth, and now he's got me thinking. We went to the paint store today to get the paint, and I ended up leaving empty handed because I started seriously considering other colors, and I couldn't make a descision. So now I ask you guys...
What color should I go with? Help me out here. Think of G-rim's front end, along with the Invader sides and rear, and an Evo spoiler. What color would look best?
I'm starting to think more and more that red + a CF or black hood would look sweet. Also, a nice blue like Peano's car would be cool too, but I don't want to be a copy cat. White would be nice, but I would have to get different rims if I went that route, because mine just wouldn't work with white. I'm definately not keeping silver, because everyone else in TGCNY has a silver car. I'm starting to think red would be cool more and more, because first of all nearly no one else has red a 7G. The only problem there is the fact that Darkkend is a big player in TGCNY, and he was hanging his hat on a red 7G a long time ago. Again, I don't want to be a copy cat, but his plans are much different from mine for his car so we might be cool there.
Help!!

Black man.. u know wat they sya... once u go black.. u never go back..lol..
i really like that black chrome..

I say go with RED. Just because it isn't as popular in the community you'll just have to cope with the higher insurance.

Thank you for the opinions guys. I have chosen a color. I bought all materials and begun painting today. Something went wrong with the paint, and it fisheyed all over the damn place, so at this very moment the G is sitting in my driveway, all taped up and rosin-papered, half painted. I'm working with ipaintu on solving the issue, and once I figure this out, I will finish painting and post pictures. The color is pretty nice. It's a deep radiant red, and looks great on the car if you squint and kind of look to the side, as to not see all the fuck ups. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ult/tongue.gif
Also, being that I just graduated college, my parents have been looking to give me some sort of present. My father just came to me and offered to buy me a Maaco paint job, but it would be one of those $400 jobs. You guys think I should take him up on that, or am I better off doing it myself and saving the money?
I just can't wait to finish this damn project. The exterior anyway. I figure the exterior is the hardest and most expensive part. Next, I work on the interior which only has one or two expensive things to do, the rest is small things or has already been done. After I pimp the interior, I'll do a few performance mods, but nothing out of this world. More than likely I will not be gettin a turbo. I don't think my engine could handle it. I have 146,000+ miles. Now is not the time to bolt on a turbo. An intake, exhaust and a little thing here a little thing there will do just fine for me.

If you're good at painting a car then get the money for engine. But if youdon't know squat the get the paint job.

damn allready started painting? I was going to suggest a color called Black Kryptonite one of my impala buddies put together, its black basecoat with kandy green pearl over it look here http://www.cardomain.com/ride/560725/9 but dont worry about the red were going to different routes so it wouldnt be too bad.
Its black in the dark and green in the light.

While I already have a thread open lemmie ask opinions of a few of you guys...
I have some badges. I was thinking for my rear, on the left side I'd have a red diamond star, and right next to it an MMC emblem. Then, on the other side, should I put anything? I have some 6G 'GALANT' insignias, should I put one of those on the right side, like it was on the 6G? That, or should I leave nothing there at all, and simply put 8G chrome 'G A L A N T' lettering where the old grey plastic ones were?
