the color white - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #3884 14 posts Started by ghostdog
okay so I am planning to paint my car white. while I have my own reasons for picking this color I am a bit confused as to the actual shade and pearl or other different things I can do to it. In my head I picture something close to the white color that comes stock on many newer lexus's.

long story short I am looking for some color ideas besides the traditional white. I remember someone saying white with silver pearl looked great but I have no pictures for me to formulate an opinion. any help, ideas, or opinions are welcome. thanks much.

heres an example of what I'm thinking >>>

i REALLY love the pearl white... its white and has a tight hue of champagne or tan or something in it... my friend has a car this color, and i LOVE it... i will try to find out the name of it
1. it would look good. 2. go find out the paint code for the lexus white and see what its called. But I say deffenatly get a pearl put in it. When I repaint the new car Im either going with some kind of pearl or metalic flake over the black.

even if you dont do some wack white just get regular white, drop it and put the lip kit ...check out Mynzeyes signature and look at the white 6gen in the foreground, who's gonna sit here and tell me that aint hot

I like alpine white. You should do a search on that. In my opinion the silver pearl dirties the white too much. I would say either go white white, or a shade of silver, not in between.

Up to you of course!
My mom just got a Lexus Lx470 suv and its full White Pearl its real nice.

It would look great on a Celi. >biggrin.gif>

my friend has a del sol painted arctic white with tangerine pearl. looks really good when the sun is hitting it.
metal flake over white looks hot too....it kind of reflects a range of colors in the sun, but its still white... or else the pearl white...
thanks all for your replies. would any of you have pictures of what these different combinations look like? basically I'm just trying to get an idea so I can tell them exactly what I want.
Can anyone tell me where to get there Rear Skirts for my GT coupe???
