Lookin to respray the zed, but not sure if I wanna leave red fully. I'm looking for a different aesthetic than the stock red. Something unique? I've seen the metallic blues around and I was wondering if aaaaanybody has done/seen something similar in red Any suggestions as to unique-type colours is welcome also (as long as they look good to me mwahaha )
ZED .. COLOUR .... have to agree about the AZTEC RED ... after very deep research, i have discovered that this colour was a direct take from from pre-colombian Mexico .. yep, AZTEC sacrifices ... red blood everywhere .... lol.... (sorry k-zed, but it had to be revealed ..!!) .. i love the burgundy/cherry red colour ... tops ...!!! .. but better still is the "benny c" metallic blue .. but he would hate you copying that ..!!! .. and even better, better still .. watch this space ... who knows ...???!!! .. eekk .. blue bess ...???
i personally love a red with a copper pearl through it, it goes a little orange at different angles and so u get all the different shades of red in between and no pinkness. - couldnt find a decent pic these are also nice mandarin orange candy http://www.kmccorporation.com/Gallery/photos/candy14_L.jpg blood red candy http://www.kmccorporation.com/Gallery/photos/candy02_L.jpg apple red candy http://www.kmccorporation.com/Gallery/photos/candy01_L.jpg
Nice 69'er My 'Stang was originally Burgundy but had it resprayed in White with a satin black bonnet: Times and tastes change, but I do like Candy Apple Red Metallic especially with black or carbon-fibre bonnet.
just posted this in an other thread i guess it would be an orange bronze candy? http://www.300zxracing.50megs.com/images/orange_z32_500x.jpg
Candy colours need to be applied by someone who knows what they are doing. A mediocre job in preparation and painting looks crap as a finished result. Ford's current bright red (Vixen) would be OK, and as Tekkie says the Mazda metallic red looks the goods. Lotus have a super bright metallic/pearl red called "chili" which looks great as well. Me, I'm going with Holden's "flame red" from the 2001 Monaro - a sort of orangy red.
Your car is Sierra red just like mine Geoffy Nissan AG2 was actually 3 different reds. Aztec red, Sierra red, and one other I cant remember.
