Talking just to keep everyone informed

like the title says...since all of you know of the damage of my car already figured i would keep everyone posted on the parts im recieving to fix it


waiting on gp-1 kit to come in (next friday)
and my charge speed front wide fenders (1-2 days)

then i'll be off to the body shop...full body work (entire car, dents ect) and body kit and new fenders put on for $1500...going to go with a really bright red...probably a metallic or pearlesent...and thoughts on a red?

Re: just to keep everyone informed

I've always been partial to a deeper red with pearl coat in it. Kinda like a blood red.

As far as Bright reds go, I wouldn't know really what to suggest, but I'm pretty sure it would be damn sexy .

Re: just to keep everyone informed

I would do just like a plain red. Make sure its smooth as shit and put a nice clear coat on it. simple is the best.

I will warn you that red paint is expensive as shit...

Re: just to keep everyone informed

It is supposed to make you wanna go faster, like in some europeen countries, they won't insure any car that has the word "speed" in the name, Mazda had to rename all the MazdaSpeed cars.

Can't see the pic.

My girlfriend's parents have a pearl white Audi, and I agree, that's a sexy color.

Re: just to keep everyone informed

Someone got StallOWnED trying to hotlink a pic.lol

I was just saying that red paint is expensive to buy. IDK about all the red cars being expensive to insure or whtaever, but my insurance didnt' go up any by getting a red car.
