Matt black is a no-no. I remember seeing Jigarmuni's OHC & boss the finishing was crap! And on top of that flaws in bodywork are impossible to hide in matt black & the fingerprints are a pain to clean & good quality matt jobs are few & far between.

I disagree Ishaan. Matt Black, if properly done is an amazing color. Bodywork error, yea thats a problem..

Read my post again Cyrus, that's exactly what I said. I'm yet to see a proper Matt paint job done around here.

@ Jitu bhai - IMO the evo grey in post no 23 and the 2nd yellow in post no 30 will look great. :)

but a glossy black will definitely be a head turner - simple and stylish :)

take care and drive safe.

Jitu!!

What is all this gold, purple, tangerine, yellow, mist, dippycolor etc !! :eek:

Its too jhatak sounding IMO.


agree:

THAT would be my pick. However, i guess that would require a full re-paint, so maybe just the same color over-coat makes sense? (should finally fix that door color mis-match!)

Gun metal silver... and anything but chrome alloys

I would go with that too. With Black gloss or matte alloys.

My budget allocated for paint job is small (20-25K) since suspension, tyres and clutch are of top priority for me now. like i said i need simplicity no jathak paint jobs as rehaan said. i dont think you can repaint whole car in (20-25k) (or im wrong). Pls advice according to my budget.
thanks

Any updates JITU?? What are you planning to do??

Final combo is Hot Pink with a Lime Green interior & a big playboy sticker on the rear windshield!

IMHO, a gold with black combo will look fantastic.

@ford_rocam: please post some side & diagonal view pics of your OHC.

lol:rl: Good one Ishaan!! But i think Florescent Green interior would be more apt with the Hot Pink exterior!!

Ishaan. will this do?? Jitu, i think you should really do this!! Then wear a Hawaian shirt with some funky leather pants and drive down carter road listening to the Pet Shop Boys or something!!

Jitu dont know much about Mumbai but here in Delhi with that budget you could get a good job done with single colour, clear coat and all at a local paint guy who would also undertake denting also but they would be doing it out in the open and without a paint booth, without proper masking, without completely stripping interiors etc. So you might end up with paint sprayed on unwanted parts like lights etc, in short it would'nt be a neat and tidy job but then again it depends upon the painter.
I would say get the mechanicals done first(supensions, tyres, clutch etc) and then wait for some time and raise the painting budget and get a good job done from a reputed guy.

@Cyrus OMG you actually went forward and did the combo and man it looks whacky:uncontrol.

WOw!!! but i think you forgot to add Yellow Color Alloys with Orange Mudflaps & flamethrowing from exhaust. eeeeeek..:eek:
but wait... what made you think about that playboy sticker???

And my wife will kick me out of the house:p but your idea is innovative!!! to create a music video with above combination.
