so ive come to the end of working on my new baby.. shes all bondoed up and needs some paint... i have access to 15-20 colors for super cheap (orange, green, purple, blue, white, black, brown, flat white and black, red, and a few others)

i was wondering if anyone can take a side pic of a hatch and design me a paint scheme in PS... nothing too intricate but somthing cool...

how about go panda scheme on it. white on top, and black below the rubber trim. i say go two tone with what ever color's you like. two tone is my favorite. looks old school and goes with the 3gee.

There's a black hatch kickin around out here in Vic and it looks pretty good. it's totally stock except for black tint in the back 3. I say go black as long as you're int. colour is gonna go w/ it.... on second thought.. just paint and change your interior later.

:thumbup:

i think if you did it right, black from the bottom of the windows up with a good orange below would look pretty good. But its hard to get it done right so it doesn't look shitty.

nice man.. and keep lots of extra paint so you can change the coulour scheme all of the time... there was a guy here who spray bombed his hatch (really beat-on) with montreal's colours during playoffs.... now its back to ugly drips... abuse of the accord

i went and bought all the black... this is just for now... im either going to get the body done on this car and get her painted or buy one thats solid and drive that...

either way, im going with Chevy Avalanche Orange with flat black all the way around the bottom

if someone can photochop that, id be happy lol
