i thought so just atempting to be diffrent but if it looks pants to others then i would not do i know its a personal thing but other peop got to like it not just me
Go for a two tone green top black bottom, make the split along the swage line (Crease in doors), should look different if nothing else. Then get your rims sprayed black for added effect - Bang up to date Cali street racer style!!

ade has black detailing on his car and it looks alright :)
grab handles, door handels, spoiler, stuff like that
be careful two toning with green - if its the wrong colour it will look naff.
If yer gonna go green go metalics - dark on the kit, lighter shade (fraction lighter not a different shade) on the body. This will make is sparkle and it wont seem as flat
Greens a funny colour on a car... :?
you considered another colour?

yea have conciderd another color but i dont know what color i want it to be diffrent and there are alot of novas out there with some wicked paint jobs but then a respray in a diffrent color is expensive when i brought the car i did not want to spend more than a grand maybe 1500 on it
if its ?1500 for a paint job a body shop would strip it to bare metal and spray inside and out for that - prob do it for ?800 too!
how much of the ?1500 you got left?
I'd look at metalic gray - maybe gunmetal grey with dark anthracite metalic kit
Take some pics of the car and load em into photo shop then just play about!
