    Thinking of new paint

    I have two colors in my mind right now.

    1. Evo Yellow
    2. Semi Gloss or Flat Black

    Im really leaning toward the semi gloss black, but i still want to hear some opinions

    Gloss Black. For some reason I don't see flat black fitting on a 7G.

    I would go wit GLOSSY, cause flat black is only RESPECTED on muscle and exotic car. ppl will think those cars were done that way on purpose. Their gonna think our cheaps car are just primered and u cant afford to paint it. No one is gonna believe ur car was paint flat black and ur gonna get tired ppl or show judges askin or u having to explain wat it is. And if u go Semi-Gloss ppl or show judges are gonna think u got the maaco special or ur paint is fading. Go glossy, or leave it red. Oh yea as far as the yellow HELLLLL NAWWW

    Semi-gloss for sure. Yellow is not a good color for the G.

    If you go semi-gloss black, it better not be a rattle can job. Do it correctly have it sprayed with a non-gloss clear otherwise it will look like any other flat black rattle canned HOnda.
    7g for life!

    ^^ yo man, the red paint wasnt can sprayed. It was done outside and there were some side effects - not so much the dust, but the cold weather at night. It burned it and it didnt come out as glossy as it was supposed to be. i just bought 4hp compressor and I still can do the body panels, but for the chassis i need a garage. Anyone wanna lend me garage for day or two? :)
