Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior re painting my car

I am thinking about re painting my car. For all of you with black cars..you know what im talking about! I find a new scratch on my car like once a week. Nothing major. just little things. I want to keep it black because black is beautifull when its all shiny. And i am in the process of ordering a VIS hood scoop to. Should i wait till the spring to paint everything?

yeah, don't wanna mess up your new paint job with salt and snow and all that. personally, if i were to spend the money on a re-paint, i'd get a unique color, just to set my car apart. you should take a look at the color of the new evo mr.

just go for it

yep black sucks. if i could do it all over again i might not pick black. too many scratehs. i wash my car like once a week. my mom can not wash her car for 2 months and hers will look better, cause its silver.

Yea my car is black too I hate the constant washing. Just be careful when you go to repaint. If you decide on black don't go to a cheap autobody shop because black will show imperfections left by the painter more than lighter colors.

you got a pic of your new evo?

^^^true, very true <-agrees

my "father in-law" has worked at a shop for like 30 years. Thats all he does. They paint cars all day long and do body work. Im sure he will take the time to make it look like a pro.

Is the color of the EVO MR your talking about the graphite gray pearl?

this

i used to have a lack cavy and it was always dirty now i have the abso red celly and it always looks clean maybe try a nice dark gray color

def go with an unic color,

that EVO MR color is nice. I don't have the money for that though. That would cost like 5k, mabye more. Thats why i am thinking just to repaint.
