Im from the coast too, i drive a red (soon to be green Fto) and friggin love it aswell.

Cya round

your painting your car green? I can't really think of a nice shade of green for a car being driven by a guy lol but well it'll be an interesting option since u'll be one of very few green ftos.

Whatever tickles your pickle!

Chrome paint on his car.

BTW that'd cost you a good $6000+ for that paintjob, not to mention it would look extremely queer

chrome... is that even legal?

imagine that... a bright sunny afternoon, in a undisclosed intersection somewhere on the gold coast...

"arrrhhggg MY EYES, I cant see where i'm going anymore, cos some jack@$$'s car is chrome"

lol, sorry. i'm not actually trying to take the p!ss outta u

have thought about doing it myself (not to the FTO... maybe to my 85 corona wagon lol), boy u r really going to notice the tiniest scratch on that paint though (its the part thats not blinding ppl lol)

btw, in that photo, do u know if that's actually chrome or just a silver paint job thats been polished like all hell?

Iâ€™ve seen a few show car painted in chrome before, looks awesome, but they are a bitch to clean, you see every dust particle on the dam thing.

And i don't think its legal as a street car.

I've seen on a TV show where some car's panel actually made out of polish copper as well, so much bling and dam heavy

I guess you can always use it as a large out door frying pan.

def not legal,
the car blends in to the environment/background, you cant see it

Gosh i wonder if thats photoshop? For some reason, it doesn't look real to me. If its real, this guy is pretty brave to drive it on the dirt road.

my guess is that its photoshopped, the reflections dont look right (the passenger side door doesnt seem to have the right reflection if the landscape was to continue to be the same as the one in the picture, and i think the bonnet reflection is not right either (tree tops looked too thinned out compared)

but still looks trippy though

Ok, when I said CHROME I didn't literally mean your gonna chrome up your car (like the photoshopped chrome image posted above)

I mean the paint itself, the metallic look, in green it would look a bit weird on a FTO, would look alright on a diff car but wouldn't suit an FTO.

the metallic blue that was kev's old car would look great (if it was really done it wouldn't be as shiny as that) and yes it would cost 6k+ to do it.
and if you want to spend that much on a paintjob, by all means go for it, its your money and your car I was just saying it'll cost that much just in case you didn't know

The hottest metallic paint i can think of, would be a pearl white or a orange, or a navy blue

is this what your looking for?

Post by **I8A4RE** » Tue Sep 19, 2006 7:01 pm

Yes well done SHue. Friggin awesome

Ok Blue god dam evry car i see at the moment is blue its suzuki's, mazda's flagship colour and yes i agree looks great but every third car is that colour. WHite OMG the most popular colour in the world and pearl just aint my cup of tea no matter what. Orange way to fast in the furious for me and i dont know about where u come from but hell common up here to. But i think we will just have to agree to disagree different strokes for different folks but just dont critise untill u see it finished then you can critise all you want
