Harlequin FTW!
Do a google search on it, there's golfs and beetles too lol
Tell us more about the car or show us pics, what works on a hatch might not work on a saloon and what might rock on a mk1 might suck on a mk2. Styles are also important, a speedlined Xe'd GSi rep wont work the same colour as a early SR
I hear rust and primer is cool these days

What's the original colour?
Its a mk2 sr. It was oringinal blue but its in primer now. I was thinking about Phoenix yellow and I've got a set of e30 bbs's which i was think maybe black?
Breeze blue FTW
Original colour it up

If it's the original breeze blue that the MK2's came in I'd go for that mate. Keep it looking mint OE stylee

Trust me, you might think the OE colour don't look good, but when you see the car repainted, with some nice new fresh modern paint even the OE colours look lush.
Mine was gold, not many people were keen on the colour (I'm talking people outside of PNG) and then they saw it resprayed...

Flol well in southie.
Your just being silly lol
Now everyone loves the colour :)
It's alright, would look better with a bumper finish like Benns ;)
seriously, choose a colour you really like, not what everyone else says, and get it done. we don't have to drive round in it, you do

But it might look sht.
How many cars look crap because the owner chose 'nice' wheels that dont suit the car? It is his car but he clearly wants some guidance or approval.
IMO the colour choce depends what bumper combo he wants to run & wether they will be colour coded or not. IMo a GSi for example can wear almost any colour esp modern metallics etc, but a mk1 with grey bumpers will not look so good in say Rio Verde metallic (K95VHD's colour) for example. An older solid shade or a basic retro metallic would suit much better. :thumb:
craig. every single nova owner wants something different from their car. some like stock colours, some like crazy colours, some go mk1, some mk2, some get all euro, some rally...... its a difficult choice.
if i could ever afford a full respray on mine, it would still be in red, possibly not flame, but similar, cos i like red mk1 novas. not everyone else does
