Exterior Color - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #13909 8 posts Started by jgreening
After the car gets its new engine, I am going to be adding a kit of some kind. I have some ideas but haven't settled on anything yet. Whatever it is, it will be clean and unique. Since I am going to be adding the kit with at least some custom molded pieces, I am kicking around the idea of changing the outside color from Black to slate pearl gray. The main advantage from my perspective would be making the exterior modifications stick out some more. The color would be similar to this boxster but more of a pearl look.

I've always liked black for our cars, gray just seems like kind of a weak black to me. And damn I wish I had the money to swap my engine, put on a body kit, and paint my car. I guess that's high school for ya.

Jay, celica grey looks fugly, but custom grey is nice >smile.gif>
i think that grey would look sweet, esp with the black vert top. what kind of kit are you thinking of getting?

Its Orville's Celica, i just drive it...
I think the grey will look real nice on your car. That's a f'n nice Boxster, if only I had the money to get another Celica, swap in a 3SGTE, kit it, and repaint it.
i think that slate would look f@@kin sweet on the vert with a kit. just do it right... i personally would stay with black though b/c for me it is more sleek and interesting to me...dunno. just my opinion

Good thing the votes are helping him to decide >rolleyes.gif>
I think the black would look better since the top is gona be black.... plus black is sexy as hell
