Neep help choosing color (updated pics!)
Well im ready to get a paint job, im undecided between Black and White. My car is walnut pearl (brown metalic) UCF 10 with dark brown interior. I would get white to match the interior better but i like the way black looks. Basically i like both colors but black shows swirls and is hard to take care of and white shows more dirt. Help me out with your opinions guys!
Thanks in Advance,
- Chris

Interior is brown.
And that's why I'm voting white, but don't forget the pearl!

keep in mind that black is the hardest color to paint. to get a good black paint job your going to have to spend a lot of money. a bad black paintjob is one of the worst things you can do to a car.
white is the easiest to paint. you have a better chance of getting a good paint job.
since the car is already brown, i think you shoudl go dark brown with pearl. its gonna look tacky any other color unless you paint the engine bay too. but thats just my opinion

A little bit more sanding then it's going in the paint booth! :smiley:
Nice color
The color you have must be quite rare, I've never seen that before . It's possible to repaint in original color and it may look very nice as well. A more subtle car, because there are so many black/white themes out there. As a car it may not stand out, but within the VIP/EXE this color might just be what it takes to make the car look very refreshing. Just my 3 cents.
What kind of putty are you using for bodywork?

choise sounds pretty hard , black or white...
i think if the interiour is brown white is a better mix with that although i think the car would look better in black..
so look if you can find pic's of a black car with brown interiour if that looks nice go with black ..
btw just got an idea while typing this ......white with some sort of effect in the paint (pearl) would be awsome too
hmm i'm not really helping here i guess :) lol

The wheel specs are F19x8.5 +35 offset with 5mm spacer 2.5 in lip R19x10 +35 offset 3 in lip. As for the brand you will laugh or flame if i told you... At first i didnt know what i was buying when i saw the rims, i thought it just looked good so i got it. But yah it's generic, all comments entertained i know it was a bad choice i made, but like i said i really didnt know anything about rims until i read up on it on forums like these. but hey, there cheap and i think it looks good... And as for the paint job, im very happy with the off white color i did, looks very classy... Pics will come when i borrow a digi cam from a friend. You dont wanna see it from my camera phone do you! Thanks guys for the support though i appreciate itThanks- (arigatou)

I got lots of room behind those rims about 2 1/2 inches play room, it's kind of a prong style spoked rim. If i don't fit then ill just put a bigger spacer

Thanks for the kind replies guys, but let me tell you wet sanding that big ass car was a PITA my hands are about to fall off and aside from that taking apart all the weather stripes seals panels door caps trunk lights etc etc for the first time and putting all back together! was crazy! It had to be my own car to do that, if not i would never do that as a job. very tiring! Thanks- (arigatou)
