allright...

I'm thinking of going EG HB... and I'm pondering on orange paint...
so plz post up pics of ornage cars (DECENT ONES) and pref. orange EG's.

I don't mind them beeing show cars, jdm cars or just bone stock cars... and if it's another brand that happens to have a cool ornage color, post that too...

I just want as many examples as possible, so that once I can finally go to the shop, I allready have an idea of which precise color I'm after...

tnx!

I personally don't like orange/copper. It seems like that was the color this year at shows. Kinda how yellow was before.

Seems like the color this show season is going towards green/tan/gold, etc.

I don't really care about what is 'in style'... I'm after building a car I'm not afraid of beeing seen in... you know... one that I think is cool...

and for some reason I'm completely feeling both orange and green... so my mind really isn't made up yet...

besides... I'll have to do some photochopping once I find some nice colours, as the ONLY picture I know of an EG w/ C-west kit is the C-west car itself... and that's cumstain white...

Who knows... if the kit doesn't fit the color... might go c.white after all...

ah well... MORE ORANGE EG's PLEASE... I'm searching like mad but I don't see many different tints... it's all OEM Honda, or Volvo... nobody else do a decent orange color?

Understandable. I just didn't know if you were building a show car or just putting a smile on your own face. I like both orange and green, I've just seen alot of orange lately.

I'm thinking a flat color if I spray my car in the spring.

hahaaaa I'm building a car that I like... yes it will be sporting a bodykit... and hell... lights might become rice thingies... but that's about it... I'm still wondering if I should just get some real wheels (you know... RG's or type C's... TE37... whatever... and have those repainted...) or get cheap knocked off ones for the looks...

but suspension has been decided on allready (except for the exact choice in adjustable coilovers... TEIN or ???) but the rest will be A-sports and Spoon sports... ow... and OEM 5lug ;)

Interiour might stay stock, or go DC2... I don't know yet

a lot of ideas and questions in my head, with a current total cost of around $25k including buying the car for around $3k ... hehehe yes there is a swap in that total as well...
