Minch00 01-28-2004 01:34 PM

Super White III - available on the EVO VI:)

97Acura3.0CL 01-28-2004 01:37 PM

:stupid:

but i prefer the cadalic pearl white

but once you pearl your parts its hard to match them up if you got in a accident, to match the paint correctly

this is what my body shop told me

how much are you paying for it?

and that escalade blue is even sweeter :D

18anatak 01-28-2004 02:36 PM

its comin down to the wire.......we started talking about the EXT blue earlier........NOW I CANT MAKE UP MY MIND!!

Escalade white........or Escalade blue??????????

CLpower 01-28-2004 02:41 PM

btw, dude you have plenty of time to make up your mind. they gotta strip the shit first, that's gonna take some time.

laslo 01-28-2004 02:42 PM

idd go with the tafetta white with a lil pearl in it

joeshmoe 01-28-2004 02:50 PM

I always liked the Pearl white that was on the legend. If I ever repaint my car, that's what I'd use.

97Acura3.0CL 01-28-2004 03:05 PM

GO BLUE

that would bee sweet on the CL but then your engine bay will be white

97Acura3.0CL 01-28-2004 03:06 PM

they will only paint the outside and not the entire inside and out of the car and what about the door jams will they paint the entire door or jus the exterior of the car?

they'll paint everything except the bay. Atleast that's how they did it w/ me.

Not sure if that's the exact white, but it gives an idea. It's also on Gran Turismo 3. It's a BRIGHT ass white.

18anatak 01-28-2004 05:26 PM

I picked a color.........but im' not telling what it is.

97Acura3.0CL 01-28-2004 05:32 PM

:arg:

come on katana

tell us

how long to paint the car?

what color? the blue or the white? pearl?

athlonxp 01-28-2004 06:29 PM

I'd have to say to go with the Cadillac White Pearl. I don't know maybe I'm biased. Take a look (probably seen it before):

http://www.umsis.miami.edu/~jpham/acuracl/Proj/14.jpg

Or go with the blue, that's also hot, but it'll be alot of work and hence might cost you a pretty penny.

But in any event, good luck on the color choice! And can't wait to see it done. I think it's safe to say that we trust your taste. None of that pilk orange or green shit!!! :thumbsup:

Ok, took off the rims, dropped it off at my bodyshop, and it should be done within 10-14 days.

I'll tell you guys this much....i didnt pick any of the escalade colors, and its not gonna be white anymore.

I'm also shaving off the side moldings, the windshield washers, and the trunk emblem. I decided to keep my door handles. I ll have pics up as soon as its done!

Acura3.0CL 01-28-2004 10:56 PM

:lame: tease!!!!! u should of gone with the WRX blue....


i swear, if it turns out to be like bably blue or pink or some shit....dont u dare!!
