Best advice i can give is to look around you local car parks for a colour you really like note down which make/model and year it is and then go off to your paint supplier. |

The trouble with dark colours (any dark colour) is that it shows up all body imperfections and all dirt and grime. Great for someone who has an immaculate car - totally straight and sheds it when it is not being used. Lighter colours are much more forgiving |

I think black would suit you, but maybe go different, try white, becasue white means goodness, innocence, purity and virginity... As opposed to black, white usually has a positive connotation... ? just to surprise people.. ![]() |

Go the factory colour, they are funky 60's colours and really suit the car even if you don't like the colour they do grow on you |

would look good on a van 2 I'd check the price of those ford paints. I had a blue one all ready to go, paint code W5. I got quoted $2500 just for paint! Damn shame, nice colour. |

I got toyota red paint code 3F4 for my car. I saw a cool toyota that day and looked up the codes on the internet because i couldnt get the colour i wanted Morris RD4, but mine looks similiar. But a colour for a van....hmm I'd go with purple. But try to get a factory car colour they are easy to get replaced by any car paint shop! |

Well, my favourite colour if I was to build an XY would be Teal Glow... it looks awesome! In real life it looks MUCH better than pics... Look here http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2035624 or http://www.australianmusclecarsales.com.au/muscle/65795 or something different ![]() http://images.google.com.au/imgres?imgurl=http://www.applegatelapidary.com/beads/soccer/10r9_small.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.applegatelapidary.com/beads/soccer/&h=101&w=100&sz=3&tbnid=4Z17Mhf7dH36KM:&tbnh=78&tbnw=77&hl=en&start=26&prev=/images%3Fq%3D%2522teal%2Bglow%2522%26start%3D20%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DN |

No, I do not think it is... clear coat on top of every teal glow I have seen... but who knows. Hope this makes your day ![]() http://www.stormloader.com/falconccwa/colourhint.htm Peter. |

Are you going to be painting the car? If so i would stick with a base colour (non metallic) ![]() |
