Hey guys. I'm thinking of doing a color change on the WS6 and I'd like to see what you guys have.

I'm considering Viper Steel Grey and Hellfire Candy Red. Let's see what you've got! Please no stock colors

I've just got your run of the mill black, but if i was going to repaint, i would do either viper steel gray, or pepper gray metallic (color of eleanor from gone in 60 secs).

Not sure if i could put a color synonymous with ford on a pontiac... thats almost sacrilegious. Although with blackbird stripes and CETA in black it would be pretty sweet.

Good luck to you though.

Thanks...

ahh...HellFire Candy Red...ahh VSG....either is a MAJOR thumbs up in my book.

Electron Blue or a deep pearl green are some other colors to think about. I saw a georgous DSG Trans Am with a mecham hood this weekend at G12. Props to whomever's car that was.

Yea man, I'm tied between those 2, but leaning towards the red because it will have alot deeper finish than the VSG.

i know you've seen the hellfire thread on here with the car that he's doing. omg. that's freaking sooo sexy. i agree though the shine and debth you'd get on a hellfire car would be unmatchable compared to the VSG.

i say vsg, but if you were to do it don't use a candy if your car will ever see the sun, because it will fade out.

Your going to screw up a really clean car... leave it alone.

In three years your custom paint will be out of style, the factory black will never go out of style.

Custom paint won't go out of style as long as you pick something that is not crazy and loud. I'm doing some engine work first, then interior/paint next within the next month or so. I have the paint it's just not painted yet lol. This is the color I am going with.

It's a Lambo color of course. It's called Grigio Telesto, Standox Paint code is 0098. Most paint supply shops should be able to cross reference it with their brand. The Standox paint isn't that expensive, it's the f'ing reducer.

Leave it alone man! That thing looks sick as is, and it's not like its got paint issues to be fixed. Spend the money elsewhere. Like hmmm a 10 pt cage that you're gonna need here before too long. Sell the convo pro's and get some bogarts man if you're just wanting to spend some dough haha Doesn't that thing have a stock 10 bolt in it still?

How about Phantom Gray Pearl? That's what color our 04 Camry SE was and I've thought it would look good on a 4th gen TA since day one. That's what color I'll do mine if I repaint mine.
