Topic #30643 22 posts Started by Manta5x
I'm gonna get my Celica painted this month , then keep it covered all winter. I have another car as my daily driver now, so the Celica can stay safe.
I was favoring bright blue ,but now it's like I see a car that color everywhere I go.

I like that green too and it would be little more unique.

Manta5x, you can keep it a factory '97 Limited Edition Deep Jewel Green like mine and a few other members' cars. I love the color.

I personally would stay away from any greens because it doesnt show off the aggresiveness of the car nearly enough. Paint color to me depends on what wheels and body mods you have, so if you were to use carbon fiber I would go for something like a clean Championship White found on Type R's in Japan, or if you were getting deep dish wheels to compliment the kit, a metallic silver/gunmetal color would look amazing.

Just choose wisely and do what you want most, either way you'll have a very unique Celica regardless of color.

I will go with the metallic bright blue ( this time).
the paint color code for this is 8P1 , speedway blue offered on the Echo and Tacoma.

i know it's different.... but i've always liked a deep orange... kinda almost bronzy color, pretty unique >smile.gif>
notice how all the celicas with that kit have intercoolers biggrin.gif

i thought that was interesting
that first one minus that stupid wing might actually be one of the nicest celicas ive seen.
hey Manta5x
have you decided what wing your using?

thats a picture from www.ar-tuning.ch


I will stick with the original wing, I don't think the gt4 wing looks well with it, but the TRD wing matches nicely.

yeah those intercoolers look sweet , I'll super rice mine out and add a fake intercooler.

JUST KIDDING.




THAT right there is a beautiful Celica. Tasteful looking kit, very clean wheel design, and that paint is very classy. I love it.

By the way thats a very good choice of color, Manta. Good luck with everything, I can't wait to see it when its done. smile.gif
