i'm thinking about repainting my dull black celica.... i can't decide on the color though.... i want something that sticks out and looks good.... help me out guys.... pics would be nice......
in my opinion, you cant go wrong with red, its sporty but not too flashy. code 3L2 red looks very nice as it is a darker red. whenever i park next to other red cars i always notice how much better the darker red looks. heres a pic of my car with 3L2, just ignore all the bugs and you get the idea.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
Yellow. Paint it Yellow. I have only seen 2 factory yellow celica's in my life, one is Coomers, and the other is a hatch I almost bought before getting my black one.

Black is also a good color. Okay.. not really "good" but I find it more rewarding. Whenever I wash my car I always take a step back and I am amazed how good it looks. Now the only problem is keeping it that way...

Coomers use to be teal I believe.

I've seen a fair few yellow ones. But I wouldn't suggest painting it the same yellow as the stock one, however it's not very bright and makes the car look faded or something, at least that's my opinion.
Do Green. You don't see green much.

^ yeah i noticed that too, 3L2 is dark, i like it, but i think id rather have a brighter red. Idk im still debating colors, but i wont be painting for a while.

Back on topic- Of course i like red, or a nice blue. I have only seen a few yellow or green celicas too...hmm

you got rims, lowering springs, or a kit coming with the paint? a color change is the last thing I would do of the four
the IS300 grey metallic. mmm...grey metallic.

I would go with the charcoal Scion TC color. It's very eye-catching when it's clean. I think the name of the paint color is flint mica.
My car is in the shop now, getting painted Radiant Red (matrix red)

I have to agree with the Red guys, a really dark red is sexy. On the 05 Yamaha R1 there is a red that is beautiful. they also have a blue that is sexy!
