lol. agreed. Im tryi to decide on what colour to get mine sprayed.

I like flip paints but their like mega last year!!! So i was thinking, maybe a 2 tone flip. Like the bottom half a real dark flip, like dark blues, purples and greens, and the top half bright, like oranges, yellows and silvers!!

What ya reckon?

:oops: Whoooops! I feel dumb now, but.... I like the side which for ME would be the driver's side, so it would be your passenger side. :wink:

Awesome pictures though, really like it, a real head-turner.

I would say its an Accord of some sort.

It has Accord taillights, and I think those are Euro Accord Headlights. It looks to have an Accord C pillar as well. However, the trunk (or "boot" for you Brits... :) ) looks to be too short to be an Accord... although those Euro Accords may have different lines than the north American version.

retirement or insane airbrush design?..... hmmm.... i'll go with the airbrush!

i wouldn't even drive a car like that. it'd be more suitable as a strict show car only. damn... hope its not a daily driver! paint jobs like that are way too expensive to risk driving around in it everyday, even if you are super careful.

rsroadkilla: if you think two tone paints are "so last year" why do wanna paint your car like that eh? no matter how many color combos you use, it will still be two tone. i'm not attacking you ok! its just wierd that you are doing something that you think is "so last year". Its like if you are saying you hate tomatoes, but love BLT sandwiches... :werd: either way, good luck on the paint job, i'm sure it'll look hot. its not played out yet! it'll look even better if you paint an airbrushed design over the two tone job, but make it very opaque so the two tone under it is still visible.

so i'd imagine that the guy that painted was hopefully making a minimum of 15 dollars an hour and that comes too $4500 and cost of paint i'd say like 500 bucks
with 5000 bucks i'd rather have 2500 dollar paint job and 2500 dollar engine but thats just me:P
