Should I man up and paint my car this color? Or stay pearl white? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

D Money · 07-26-2006, 05:13 PM

As some of you kids know I am painting my car once I get it back from Xotic Motorsports. Well, I narrowed it down to these two choices.

Artic white w/pearl (white base coat)

or

House of Kolor Blurple (black base coat)

here are some pics of that blurple I was talking about:

StealthTC · 07-26-2006, 05:26 PM

no blurple, the 600hp Jotech Scion tC is Blurple and I think its ugly. My next color is Championship White with gold pearl flake.

D Money · 07-26-2006, 05:32 PM

No? I just wanted to see what people would think before I actually painted it that color and then it be ugly or something, probably the reason why I didn't choose a wild color from the begining. I guess depending on what some other opinions are along with my final decision will determine whether or not I go wild or simple.

i personally dig the blurple... if i follow thru with getting my car painted... its getting a version of "blurple" .. not that one but yea..

**TROLL** · 07-26-2006, 05:37 PM

white is classy... purple isnt. but in the end, paint it whatever color you prefer...

D Money · 07-26-2006, 05:40 PM

So true. I think I might be stuck with the pearl white because red brides will not match blurple nor would my gold advans lol. I would have to sell all of that and start over once again!

you can't go wrong with white

R33P3R007 · 07-28-2006, 01:35 PM

I agree, you can't go wromg with a white pearl. but that blurple is hot

D Money · 07-28-2006, 01:36 PM

We will see, maybe I will just surprise tst. lol

03sLoMaX · 07-28-2006, 01:48 PM

Turbo_CitrusEs · 07-28-2006, 11:44 PM

Im gonna go with this color.....House of Kolor Tangerine with a Zenith Gold Pearl.

awdlaserbeam · 07-29-2006, 12:01 AM

do a darker purple.
my buddy had a del sol, i forget what color, blue-ish purple. But anyways, he had a CF hood and had a purple pearl put in, looked verrry nice.

blurple is that color of the car you see wayyy too hooked up at car at shows...with spinners and 72" moniters in the head rests with everything fiberglassed and some paul wall blasting in the cd player....white is more of a logical decision. IMO..either way, your car is going to be nice.

why not do the blurple and powdercoat your wheels some different color. Its not too expensive.

TurboTagTeam · 07-29-2006, 11:41 AM

Leave it black. THen use the money that you woulda spent on paint to buy a motorcycle.

WRXD · 07-29-2006, 01:09 PM

I like the blurple...a car like that deserves a sporty color---white is classy, not sporty IMO.

D Money · 07-29-2006, 01:43 PM

Still undecided guess we will all find out in the near future

spoolinLSsol · 07-29-2006, 02:06 PM

Gorilla Unit 33 · 07-29-2006, 04:44 PM
