My Terminator was wrecked - Need advice for paint

[slapnutz]

My car was in a wreck, getting it fixed here soon. The guy from the body shop said if I want it painted a different color, he will do whatever I want for no extra charge. Car is originally silver, so the only thing that won't be painted is the engine bay. I'm open to other suggestions.

I'm not a fan of painting a car a different color other than the color out of the factory.. Unless it is stripes or something like that

 

[slapnutz]

That's another thing I was considering - silver w/ black stripes.

Stick with the factory color. Very few people will want a vehicle with a partial color change. I would rather have a factory color I didn't care for.

keep it silver any other color will look half assed with a different engine bay color when you open the hood. and it will stand out more than you think and not in a good way. IMO

Silver with black stripes or ghost flames:beer:.

Silver. Ghost flames if done right would look good on it also.

Stock color man

ghost flames are ugly. prolly single most worst thing anyone could do to a car.

silver cobras personally are the best looking...

maybe do something like black or blue on top...

then again i think a real pearl orange or lime green cobra would be really nice.

How can you say Ghost flames are ugly and then tell him to paint it Orange or lime green? :dw::xpl:

LOL...from silver to lime green = ghey.

Stick with silver man, anything else would look strange with the engine bay staying silver.

 

[slapnutz]

Good deal. I think silver with the black stripes is the way I'm gonna go.

 

[PistolWhip]

I would do silver with DSG or similar gray stripes. I love the look of subdued stripes.

 

[T-Pain808]

Midnight blue, That's what I would do.

I cant help but agree that the stock color is what you really need to do but i think some black or grey stripes would look really good but do alot of research on width and how far you want them to go before you do it since once they are there they are there! Good luck on your choice but just remember you have to like what you do we are all just giving our opinions. Sorry to hear your car was in a accident but best of luck with your choice and post some pics when you are finished!!

why not just get it painted the stock color and forget about all these stripes and other dumb ideas....:shrug:

i'd stick with the silver. easier way to go i'd say.
