Whats the point of spending all that money on a re-spray if your nova is nearly at an end? Or do you mean its nearly finished??

If you then plain colours Black

Or flip between purple and gold or something similar.

avoid flip - common - everyones got them

avoid pearl - m8 had a cossie with pearl white with blue/green tint and it looked like the car was covered in dry moss when coudy!

whats the car look like? If the styling is plain then go for a strong colour - if its complex and lots of curves or angles (like it has a mad bumper or skirts) then go for a subtle colour (like DJP_y2k's yellow beastie)

What about metal flake or rainbox flake - 70's style!

Funky deep purple nova with red flakes - heavily lacquered would look awseome! Speed Buggy style!

i like the idea of those mad metalflakes that change colour. would maybe be a bit OTT for a subtley styled car. what about a gloss black finish with mad as a hatter metalflake flippy wheels.

A pastel colour is what you want. With LOADS of lacquer on top.

Look at the House of Kolor paints.

Metallic black, I had my old SR done in it and it rules - check out some of the black GSi's at the show for proof.

I thought maybe black LOADS of lacquer, and metal flake/gliter stuff?
