I'm getting a set of seat covers from mxysxy's group buy, in one of my posts then I mentioned that I'm hoping to get my car repainted, but havent decided on colour.

ask ppl then to decide for me, but no one did, so here's a poll :P :)

*Awaits Slap*

Red mate! Go a bit darker red. That way you dont have to get all the door sills & engine bay repainted... Nothing dodgier than lifting the bonnet of a blue car & seeing a red engine bay!

I'd agree with Ben about the red since it'll be cheaper and easier to do it, but check out that freshtouringorigination.com website where everybody's been posting their fto albums.. and there's one fto which is a inky blue color.. it looks so fken hot, best paintjob i'll ever c on a fto.
if u get that, u'll be my new god :twisted:

You could go the green like the Eclipse in the first F&TF?

Just don't forget to add the T66 Turbo, Motec system exhaust, Nos fogger system and a standalone fuel management system. :lol:

um.... i have a grand total of negative $240 to my name right now, so its hard enough to get the $$ together for the respray (just decided to do the respray because the scratches are really really annoying me, although not big and all except one is hardly noticeble unless you know they are there... but I do know they are there :cry: ), so in conclusion i dont think i'll be able to get the other mods done for a few more weeks lol

oh and i hate green.

"that's so not a turn on - green"

anyone know where that line was off? 8)


oh and i guess baby blue will glow at night as well... if its the right shade...

I think i nice deep red or maybe something like the RX8 red with the silver shimmer would look hot on a FTO and like Bennoz said that way you dont have to respray your engine bay n door sills

Baby blue:

If you are worried about your sexuality, don't be... I recently got engaged to a member of the opposite sex, so you should be OK :wink:

Gotta be the blue, but the engine bay is going to look pretty horrific still in red......

i'm still leaning towards the lightning blue/baby blue option, i might pull most of the interior off for the respray, but there is no way i'm pulling the engine out (maybe I'll just respray the engine bay with everythign still in it jk)

i'll have to see how many cases of beer this friend is going charge me for the job and how much $$ the paint is all going to cost to determing what i'm going to do.

I kinda like the baby blue, now that i've seen a photo of it (i'm thinking maybe a shade lighter just to be different lol)

thanx for the suggestions guys, keep it up - the more you vote, the less chance of me painting it hot pink lol

alright who voted for the same red? fess up so i can slap you!! >.<

btw, sublime - you were right about the tampon ad - "it's so U", and yes us poor ppl still get to see that ad on free to air tv lol

Go black, and paint the plastic cover thing on the engine red so when you lift the bonnet it'll look like you painted it all on purpose to be 8) lol

lol u no this is what I say everytime somebody has a poll asking what they should do, it's good to get people's opinions but honestly, I can see u want the baby blue (or else u wouldnt put up that option there in the first place) so just go with it, or else your going to find excuses as to why you should paint it baby blue!!

YES u will look like a poof but who cares *jk* seriously though, u'll be driving the car, so go with what you really want :)

lol cheers

i'm leaning towards the blues (not sure which colour yet, really did start the poll beause i cant decide between the blues). but now i like the candy apple idea for some reason as well...

i think i'm worse off now because i've done this. lol
