thought you were sticking with the same colour? I know you've mentioned you have tons of painting experience.....will you do it in your garage?
Every time i think im set on the stock LGM, i see another color, or one ive thought about before and question what i should paint it. Yes, ill do it in my garage.
I was about to insist on Blaze Orange Metallic from the RSX
2nd vote is for Glacier Frost Mica...the Lexus color. Classy, white and gray and pearl...so awesome.

Blue and orange are Bears colors. I refuse to have something like that
That is a nice color. Ive been eying the new CTS-V satin metallic white pearl color
Dude that rear diffuser is going to be killer.
If there is one thing I would want if given unlimited monies for the TL is a rear diffuser.
Our tail end just sits "too high"
Well there was a slight oversight on my behalf with the use of the factory mufflers. I either have to figure out how to get the oem mufflers to fit or make my own now. I need dual tips on each muffler, one of which is the quiet (baffled) ti, the other will bypass all the internal baffling and go straight thru the muffler. I customized the stock muffler to do this but due to the rear diffuser and where the exhaust openings are on it the oem muffler doesnt quite fit to make that happen
I think i found the color i want to paint it too. Its Fords Guard green. Some angles it looks almost black, others it looks grey, and in the sun at other angles you can see its actually green, and since my car is green (laguna green metallic) it wouldnt be that big a departure of color
Do you have to bake the pieces you paint? Where do you get your supplies?
No. Baking isnt necessary. All it does is speeds up the drying/curing so it can be handled sooner. There are faster/slower reducers/hardeners you can add to the paint to help speed/slow curing depending on temp you are spraying at. Im spraying in my garage with temp set around 80. I can handle it in around 12hr. I get my paint and supplies at a local auto paints (NOT parts) store.
I couldnt resist throwing a little clear on it tonight (even though i have to sand it all down and smooth it out some. this was just a test spray to see if i liked the color).
oh yeah, it's going to look very different from sun to shade and at night. love it!
In person its soo much different in shades of color its amazing. I may try a custom mix of it with a little more metallic grey mixed in and see if it changes more??
