how's this for an idea?????????

i was drinking a can of sprite yesterday and was falling in love with the green color towards the bottom of the can. im wondering if that exact same color would look good on a civic with like a black decal added to it, black carbon fiber hood, and some killer black rims, with black windows. what do you think. ???

I dont have any sprite cans so I cant check it out right now. Sometimes though, colors will look good on small things and then when you see them on something big (like a car), its different. and you may not like it.

sounds good man....maybe one of the photo-chop guys could hook you up with an idea....that sounds pretty dope though...

:disappoin i dunno man.. by now.. i woulda already done that :naughty: thats a badass idea - do it homie

it would be different. but there arent any carbon fiber hoods for the 4dr yet. i think sparq was trying to make some but never followed though. i was ready to get one. :crying:

well i wasnt exactly referring to my car. i was reffering to like a 92 up civic or 94 up integra. i think it would look killer. i've made my decision that im gonna trade my civic and maybe some cash for a 94 up integra, and start all over with the motor. i need something new everyone knows what i have now in the 4 door and plus i want a little bigger car im 6-2 . if i do it im gonnna get that paint done. hopefully its by the end of this year.

i would go with the integra, has more room. what engine are you going to use for the other car though? the crv-tec is like the best swap you could go with imo. ill trade u my 4dr for yours!

give me a pic of the color and a pic of the car and ill chop it for u.

i say do it ... you always have good ideas ... like the red rims :sunglasse

ahhh thanks melt you make me feel so warm inside :biggrin: i've made up my mind im gonna do it but first i need to find an integra. crxlover just find a sprite can on the internet its the green around the bottom of the can.

ill see what i can do

thanx im gonnna search right now too.

You should get in touch with sprite! I am sure they would do it for free if you let them paint the SPRITE logo on your hood! Then just buy a cf hood and toss the old one.

Oh, by the way... The sprite cans are Anodized, try and scratch the color off one and you will see.
This is something I have always wated to do, but lacked the funds to anodize an entire civic hatch.
Ps, anaodized=REEEALY LIGHT.

anadized paint is dope ... it is less prone to scratching. My friends dad has an annadised santa cruz superlight (mtn bike)

anodized, how does that work, does it just make a color lighter??? i dont know if im gonna do that but im pretty sure they can match the color on the can with out anodizing. one thing though im gonnna have them put on at least 2 clear coats.

i say do it ... you always have good ideas ... like the red rims :sunglasse
hey hey, i photochopped him some help ;)

and by the anodizing being lighter, its weight-wise lighter

hey hey, i photochopped him some help ;)



:iceslolan yup i remember looked pretty close to the real thing too.

redline i couldnt find a pic of your car to chop, u have any?

yeah here ya go its old but it will do for now

damn im having trouble adding the attachment. how do u upload them like we used to. let me try againhttp://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/attachment.php?

just click the manage attachments thingy and it'll let you attach a sub 100k JPEG image.

here are some pics for him, including the photoshop :) had put it up

well with the overly shitty quality of the those pics this is the best i could muster, i didnt have any decals to put on it.

had to bump this, didnt know if redline saw it.

dude, that looks alot like the color my car is painted now. I won't have pics for like an hours or so but when i get them i will show what i mean
