Hey guys I’ve just taken my car to body shop to get a full re-spray and was thinking of getting it in another colour at the moment it’s a moon grey which is going to be a hard colour to better. Anyone got any idea of a good colour for the coupe i was thinking pearl white but I’m not sure. i want a classy color. i dont know how to upload a pic of my car otherwise id show you what my car looks like lol ah well.

the new audi white...white is the new black...

I think it really gives the coupe a nice modern clean look with the LE kit. what price you looking at for the spray work?

i got a friends price so not too expensive it needs the work as it has loads of damage after rolling into a wall when the handbrake couldnt hold the car on a steap hill.

One person's classy colour is another's tacky one

Just go for the colour you want, not what everyone else thinks.

Something out of the TVR catalogue...

i agree that its got to be your choice. I do really like your white idea though....white cars kept clean and cared for can look very very good.
Think about how much time your willing to put into looking asfter your car after the spray job aswell....as some colours look amazing when clean but terrible very quickly after 10 miles on a wet motorway. Others look ok all the time but dont give you that amazing sparkle.

yellow is a great color, you don't notice its dirty until you clean it and give your self retina burns

i agree totaly its just i cant decide white does sound good but i looked at some coupes on google in white an im sorry but they looked ugly hope its no ones on here. i thought bout the tvr catalogue but cant see the coupe in them colours it might have to be a porche turbo white i think tho.

There is a coop knocking about painted in the ST Asbo orange colour, i like that.

orange is too noticable i dont want to be driving down the street and people sayin of look thes that boi in his orange coupe too exotic i think sorry.

again, your choise, but silver had always been my fav color for a coupe. i just haven't ever managed to find one that inst 10 different shades

I had a full respray done on a Beetle a couple of years ago.

The curves suited the paint in the sun the same as a coupes curves would.

It was called Subaru Granite Black. (an old Subaru color)

It is a really beautiful color. It looks jet black at night and in dull daylight. But when it's in the sun it has a really magic red metal flake pearl. it will really turn heads and is not to in your face like some of them silly muscle car pearl effects.

i duno if this link will work but hope it does sorry if it dont lol

Not a million miles away from portofino blue

Nice. But ask yourself- does that colour look good because of the car or does the car look good because of the colour? If its the latter, then I don't see why the Coupe wouldn't look good in that colour too.

Personally, I was watching Bad Boys 2 the other night and Will Smith's Ferrari looked both sporty and classy in that colour- smoke grey I believe.

Why not go for a rare orange sort of colour, that's not too in your face?

The Alfa 156 GTA's have a lovely colour called Miro Red or Miro metallic red.

It's a lovely shade of red in certain light and changes to lovely shades of oranges and reds in other lights.

Lovely colour and I think it would look nice on a Coupe

Although, I do like the orange mentioned above in another post too

white is the colour of the moment.

photoshop it

White is not a colour ...

and the coupe has been there originally already in plain white.

Lum

ICE White Like the new Audis as metioned would be a cool as fccuk btw.

here is mine in lambo ballon white,no body notice my post so open it up-

I think that colour will really suit the coops lines, very clean, crisp and minimalist, good choice!

ill try take some proper picturs over the weekend with a proper camera

great coupe woody

a white coupe,loving it mate.
cant wait to see some more pics of that!

yeah very..needs alittle TLC in places like underneath where the overspray has gone on stuff but i,ll be sorting that out in the next few days..

Very nice. I'm also part of the 'elite' white coupe's with mine looking like yours but mine is standard with clear white and no kit. It also has.... flushed bonnet, rear lights tinted in cherry red and the dash is cherry red. The bodyshop have done a really good job but now all i'm waiting on is the mirrors to be sprayed white.

Im hoping to make the wheel's a dark grey colour in the future.

Pictures to follow soon......

Nice

Looks like a quality paint job mate. looking forward to seeing some proper daylight photos

yeh hes done well. im very happy with it, it's just a shame its been snowing and its dirty already!!! lol

white is the worse couler for getting dity,if my coupe was that couler id never let it get dirty[lol]

Looks stunning even with the "rubbish photos" looking to get mine back next week and then I'll be part of that elite group too, I decided to go for ibis white

wow and woooooooooooooooow thats real nice nick,but what are them things on the side of the bonnet.

Too true i wash mine with my raybans on when its sunny

White coup`s look fantastic, great choice

wellcome to the "gruop"-looks good

Omg I saw it for the first time in the day today and when the sun reflects off it and you see the pearl paint it looks amazing can't wait to take some photos of it when it's realy sunny!!

great stuff mate

Did you ever take some more photos?

Agree, I saw a new TT in this colour and it looked very nice indeed.
