does anyone have a link to a thread with pictures of the "candy magenta" CL from a couple years ago? ive read a couple posts about it but cant find the thread. I only ask because the guy that built the car is a good friend of mine and id really like to make fun of him, if you guys have any info or pics it would be great.

 

are you talking about the one with skulls and all that :ghey: shit on it?

 

I have the pics, I'll have to see if I can dig them up

 

NO he's talking about pinky, not pop pop pop

 

I only had pics of the inside saved because I liked how they did the 2 tone and wanted it for reference for when i did mine, the outside was the same color with pinstripes

 

dang that actually looks good. if only the pink was replaced with blue or red.

 

 

I copied a lot of the same pieces, but did satin black

 

LIKE OMG PINK!! LOUIS VITTON!! OMG!! :gheyfight:

i really like how he did the wood trim though, if that were a dark green or something that would be really cool.

 

whats with the LV shit? i feel like i see it everywhere, is there some requirement to owning a CL missed in the n00b guide?

 

i just like how there's a pattern there. not necessarily LV.

 

i agree, the pattern looks good. definetly makes it unique..

itd be cool if i could two tone my interior.. like graphite/black. although i do like my wood trim. maybe overlay it with some black like the person in the pink did with the trim.

 

looks pretty damn IMO
the interior has too many tones in it, the stock tan and gray, plus the pink, plus the LV. and then to top it off, the dirty carpets

but they did do nice work with the woodgrain, anyone know how they just made it look like pink woodgrain? sprayed only a little pink spraypaint on maybe?

 

im thinking they may have used a film of some sort.. like cellophane type deal. almost like you would tint a window or a tailight?

 

Are those facking boost gauges??

 

boosted gay car. haha

 

Not boost guages, one looks like a battery meter, the other one i think is a A/F guage

The best part about this car is it was made pink by a guy, that just kills me. A girl bought it, joined here, and then the motor blew up Wish I could find more pics, I know they were on cardomain, I think I'm still friends with the chick on myspace

 

Found a couple old threads, tried looking on her myspace but it said the pics were deleted

LMAO, that was great guys, thank you all for your research thats exactly what i was looking for.

shitty day at work today and this really cheered me up, the funny thing is my boy is 6'3" like 240lb driving around a pink coupe. you do have to give the build credit tho, alot of work went into that car. if it would have been blue or something i think it would have been hot.

ill ask him how he tinted the wood and ill get back to you.

 

it didnt blow up, it was originally from florida or some crap. she lived in wisconsin and they had 100% water in the coolant system so as soon as it went below freezing... snap crackle pop...

 

 

that's freaking awesome! i wanna do mine in whiteee

 

 

wtf? is it like... pearl? it looks like someone got on it with a crayon

 

at least her's was lowered....

 

fixed

 

I think its a girl...any ways dont like it one bit specially painting the arm rest and going with a lowrider paint theme on the outside

 

Nobody reads the damn threads anymore, it was a guy that did that to the CL. It was then repo'd and sold on ebay to a chick, who joined here and it was quickly destroyed by having no coolant in the rad

 

Oh wowzers!

 

I'm interested in how the painting of the woodgrain went.

Does anyone know of any aftermarket replacements for our woodgrain or are the only options custom builds/paint?

 

i think theres an aftermarket woodgrain piece for the 97, around the radio. other then that, i dont know, you may have to do it yourself

 

Nope, no aftermarket woodgrain, I painted mine satin black
