    Which color..

    So i talked to a buddy of mine that does paint and body work. He is going to teach me how to do body work the correct way and help me do the paint and body work on my car soon but idk how soon. Im torn between two colors.... The whitest white i can possibly do or pearlescent white? Its a hard decision but im not sure if i can pull the pearl off with the galant.. Its more of a bigger car type color.. IDK.. Anyone have pics of a pearl white 7g? Please help guys.. I want to make the right choice because if i dont i will be stuck with it.


    Thanks,
    Johnas

    well if he will be doing or helping out etc with the painting and he is good i would say pearl, however if he is teaching you to do it yourself and be more of a supervisor the a regular color is easier to get right and can be corrected easier then pearl

    i prefer ultra high gloss black, but if whites your thing, ide say shoot the pearl if you are going for a high end car look, of shoot the reg. white for a more sporty look

    but thats just me.

    UH UH No pearl , It looks like shit when it gets old or dirty. I have the some choice u have and i went wit Dodge charger white (Factory color). I did alot scouting on pearl white cars, and if they were older cars it looked yellowish and if it was dirty the pearl made it look worse. Besides its harder to find touch up paint.

    Color change is not an option.. Im not putting the time into doing it all the way.. Im a perfectionist.. Everything has to be perfect! Meaning.. No white paint showing anywhere... And im just not up for the task of repaint.. Plus white isnt as high maintenance.
