does this color scheme work? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

this looks good but the lime green makes me want to punch myself in the face...

blue is much more toned down, makes it look like a mustang

white in comparison does look terrible. i might say do a white base coat, see if i like it, and if i dont than do the green over the top of the white so the green pops more

All three look f'ing horrible.

Don't do this to your car. This isn't a 99' Civic. This car is meant to be sporty and classy, not ricey and ghetto.

Just drive the damn car and forget about customizing or bastardizing or whatever creative urges you have. This may seem harsh but you'll thank me later.

I thought this was a serious thread until the photoshops of the plastidipped exterior.

Oh what the fuck
"Toned down" really?
If I saw a date show up in that...I'd rather walk, just saying.

The white on the mirror strip is so sloppy it's almost laughable.
Like they said though, with all the finger prints and whatnot, the white won't be white for too long.

I don't really like your style but do what you want. I've actually plasti dipped a few whole cars and other parts and the white never does well on frequently used parts like door handles or shift knobs. It gets dirty and looks dingy. I wouldn't do it in white regardless.

Vinyl would prob hold up better. Not a terrible idea but not sure how well it really meshes with hot lava. Whiteout i would say hell yeah.

Wolfking · 05-04-2014, 01:40 AM

Yes! Only if...

1.) Your exterior is Whiteout
2.) the white is high gloss clear coated.
3.) YOU LIKE IT!

Yea. I did a lot of research on the white. I think the general consensus was two coats gray than 1 white and finish with a pearlizer. But as far as finger prints I dunno. Most interior plastidip is on things you don't touch.

Orange on black is a great color combo. But white and orange has always been fun to me. Two tone panda 86s are classic. I want to find a way to incorporate that into the hot lava.
Vinyl is a good plan for the console areas. I'll read up on it.

To each his, or her, own, cars are for fun. Sorry, I did it in 15 minutes on Photoshop!
