respray colour idea's!



  182 Cup/Mk5 Gti
im debating with all the new work im having to just get a full respray and go full out!
heres the car in question....

now what i have waiting to go on is....
172 phase 1 front bumper
172 phase 1 wings
172 phase side skirts (gen)
172 phase 2 rear bumper
1*2 phase 2 rear cup spoiler

im also plating the boot lock and badge holes and smoothing, plating the bonnet badge and washer jet holes and smoothing. but if i was to have a full respray i would have a new roof panel (non sunroof), de-lock the doors, phase 2 side strips with smoothed bullets and thats about it really.
i can get a very good respray for £1000 on the side at a proffesional bodyshop.

the colour im contiplating wether to have lamborgini champagne...

gone off the idea of a wrap now and want a full colour change. i like the colour it is but if im going to doing all the work i may aswell be different and get something that sets it out from the rest and make my little mark so to speak!
this is also a very nice colour...

its hummer sage green and lamborghini lime green. i ideally want to go for a brown, champagne, green colour.

I saw that on ed38! Not a fan of the rims like that but the colour is great!

Brown does look good on ph1s though.

Love this one you posted in your thread

Hey man what bout an off white / cream. Not sure how it would look. Am trying to find a good pic of what it mean, would be pretty subtle.

The dark weird looking metallic brown on the late classic coopers?
The old english white colour on the new beatles
The champagne colour that's on some of saabs?
I see a mondeo today with a nice yellowy champagne colour?
Mercedes have a nice brown too
 
  Turbos.
How about lunar grey? I would say keep it in the Renault family. You've said you want to be different yet we have posts with cars showing its been done already!

Usual suggestions will be lurid Porsche colours, but i think the car has to be pretty mad to pull it off.

one ore the other, think it would be to much to go for both. I like the blue.

what i mean by different is that its not on another clio that ive seen!
im really drawn to a dark metallic brown!
 
  182 Cup/Mk5 Gti
fook it im going to go for that brown on the 172! it looks to good not too!
let the smoothing comense :)
 
  182 Cup/Mk5 Gti
im going to get cracking with the smoothing and in 2-3 months time ill have saved enough for the respray! hopefully start of the new year it will be finished and will look imense! :D
 
Pick a deep rich pearl colour, like a pearl brown or dark red or even dark purple. Beware if you are wanting House of Kolour paint on it you'll need to save up a fair whack of cash!

ive heard its very expensive! the porsche browns at the top of the cards atm! if you type "porsche brown" into google images look at the first porsche thats the exact colour i want!
