AE92 best color for the ae92...?

yea so i got a price quote and it was 250 to get the oem super red color and base clear or good clear for 300. but now im wondering should i keep it red. i like it i just want to change it. i like the black cherry on the tc's. or mayb just stick to red. but i love the two tone. im so confused. any ideas? please dont say that orange on the 350z's that only works for hondas.

it's going to be a shitty paint job for $500. orange peel galore and no prep work. you'll be lucky if they even wash it first or mask off the windows.

nah I didn't mean 2 tone but singe colour. I think it's silver and blue that look really good on our cars in a 2 tone. I am thinking of doing red and black like a panda paint job for the easy of repairing it. Stones hit the lower parts of our cars and the hoods alot. So if you paint those black it's alot less on colour matching. Since I plan to keep red and red tends to fade over the years.

thats what I was thinking of doing, people will probably laugh at the panda style paint job, but like I said... really easy to fix when a stone hits it. Don't have to paint the whole panel or whole car depending where it hits and how long since the car was painted.

I like how it looks in that pic! Like I keep saying it's all about the rock hitting it and being able to use a bit of spray paint or something to hide it lol

mad tyte JDM photoshop skills yo! I always like the AE86 red/black panda paintjobs, and I also thought about doing that to my car a while ago. Not sure what colour I would go with now though, but I might just stay with a nice red.

REN.. seriously, have you ever thought of just selling one of your AE92 and just get an AE86?
