Just trying to get some imput, basically what i have is a white grand am, with white rims(cheap ones, dunno what kind, got off ebay for 375 w/ shipping, look nice tho), ram air hood(ebay), and an ED Type Showoff 3 complete body kit(
www.extremedimentions.com). the windows are not yet, but getting tinted blue, not sure who im going to have tint it(some place local) but im ordering electric blue films from gilafilms, but ordering the actual films from local pepboys (
http://www.gilafilms.com/auto/xtreme_colors.html &
www.pepboys.com), then the interior is where the airbrushing really comes in. The entire, side panaling, dash, center console, ect will be painted with racing blue interior specific spray paint from
www.jcwhitney.com which cleans up nice. Then the vents will be removed and sprayed white, along with some switches, nobs, and various removable components that stand out from the dash it self. Next i will go in with a lighter blue paint (havnt decided which tone of blue yet) and beggin airbrushing the dash (the dash will be removed and in a well ventalated area) The dash will have various colaborating tribal art designs and any other designs that i may feel nessicary to be put on(basically some weird abstract tribal shit), my name will be tagged (graffiti style writing) in the center of the dash with pearl white spray(if i can find pearl white for airbrush). Thus it stands out more than the other blues. The side paneling will go on the same sceme as the dash, minus my name in white, but the colors will fade from the current blue to even a lighter blue color that will become almost white when it makes it to the back. Im still doing the sketches of it on paper right now before i go all out to make sure i have it all the way i want it. My estimated time to complete the dash is 1 week with the very detailed tribal designs. Then 1 week for each side panaling.(spending 1-3 hours a day) The center console will most likely only take an hour if even that, but recently i've been thinking of incorperating some sort of design on the armrest part, if u have an idea on what this design should be feel free to comment, or i may just make some unique and abstract organic shapes. Personally i think a design would be better, but none have came to my mind. Then on the exterior, on the back part of the trunk "Team Smurf" will be airbrushed on in graffiti styled writing with 2 tones of blue fading being lightest in the middle. Tell me what u think, when im done ill post pictures. any idea's, suggestions, constructive crisism is greatly welcomed and appreciated! Also if you have any idea's for design's that can go on the sidepaneling and on dash please let me know! thanks!
