hey all,

thinking of changing the colour of my ceffi and just want to know a few others opinions and any pictures please post up.

I want to stay away from "full-on" out there colours as it is my daily driver. I am planning on getting one of those URAS style kits.

I currently have 18inch chromes on the car too so they have to fit in.....at least for the time being.

I would like going for the VIP look but maybe not black as you cant get aftermarket tailights for them so I want to tint them......

thanks

Seriously I reakon the R33 GTR Midnight Purple looks great if your after the VIP look, also would look good with a URAS kit. You need a dark colour with chromies!

That would be my suggestion!! :ermm:

There's enough of them already lol

Black with purple flakes... Or a real deep metalic blue. Late model tail lights for shizzler.

a really nice metallic grey...

mazda and bmw have the nicest colour range i believe

I'm on this bandwagon... go a nice BMW grey colour.

you could go the phoenix gold / yellow that they brought the M3 out in ¿

very nice colour on that car but i don't know if i could picture it on a cef

(my 2c)

or! for something different, what about the purple colour that for does the XR's etc in? that's a nice colour that doesn't have that factory appeal to it :thumbsup:

Metallic silver is great, but with chromies...maybe a silver overload....

my 2c

So dave when u getting your ceffie :thumbsup:

Yeah, I'm with the silver overload opinion too... the purpe would be pretty suave though :yes:

ha ha! if someone wants to sponsor me I'll get it now ;) At this rate, I may be able to think about buying some time between Christmas and Mid next year :D

Tossing up between another R and a cef though... decisions, decisions lol! Might go R first then move over to a mad ceffy :) (Have to cure my withdrawals lol!)

people dont know what colours really suit a car...

when driving around with my gf - were always picking out hot factory colours on cars... like holden (this is the only holden colour i like) on their VX's... they have a khahki green... its half not bad... needs more metallic and green though but still

greys and khahkis etc... its what should be done!

im still trying to find a khahki similar to that green one :wave:

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
