I'm in the process of my Nova Saloon project and am stuck on what colour to paint it,so what do you guys think

Some ideas floating around are: (dont know the technical names http://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif) metallic Audi white, Vauxhall metallic black, Nova GSI graphite grey, cadbury purple, Focus ST orange, Fiesta Zetec green, matt black, or matt white.

As you can see there are a lot of colours I like which is why it is so hard to chose!
Think I'm swaying towards matt white?

Feel free to through a spanner in the works and suggest another colour! http://www.migweb.co.uk/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

technically you only like 3 colour as the rest are shades of black :p

First off, what 'look' are you going for? The colour should match the style really

It's worth noting that any colour can be matt now, you just use a matt laquer instead of gloss. May I also point you in the direction of Honda - over the year they've had some wicked colours with alsorts of pearls and stuff.

I know you can matt any colour,just only reall like black or white in matt.
I'm keeping the body GM with a GSI kit going on and Cav slabs,but not sure if I'll stay GM on the paint or not,just dont want it to look the same as everything else!

mexico red Sucks, If your going to go for a Full hit, do something Which you like.

Personally i have a soft spot for Baby Blue, but your only allowed to paint over Mexico Red cas its the worst colour known to man.
