An Orange Tl?!?!!?

Mugen grille, W-type kit, spoiler, cleared out headlights... are def. future mods, but what ab this paint job? so far, my car is the 2000 emerald green... its a good color, but probably the only color that could not be considered sporty.... (it was handed down from my bro).... so you think i should get a tangerine orange paint job with 18" white rims!? i think it would look mad hot... but wud look like a toy

Damn, I can't quite remember I think it's 1999TL's car?!?!?!

I know which car you are talking about... it is a custom paint job...

You can try Yellow...... just to be original ya know... or a Blue/Purple kinda color will be cool, too..........

I would stay away from orange. What do you think about candy apple red or that bluish/purple color? I know someone on the board has candy apple red paint but i forget who. I think either of these 2 color would be HOT!!!

looking at it again, it looks like the TL-S color, but looks better because it's on a 99-01. Originality wins IMO.

Yeah but that other TL was pretty sweet, but instead of the expensive custom paint, I think the Aegean Blue Tl was pretty sweet color,

My car is painted the darkest shade of Kandy tangerine. It's getting repainted now cuz i got rear ended, and my brother cracked my front kit...bla bla.

I was thinking about switching to kandy apple red, but I'd have to repaint door jams and hwat not. IF I were you, I'd paint it Kandy apple red, can't mess with that color...it's bad A$$ It always glows and looks wet.


Go here to see pics of my car color.

candy apple red has got to be one of the tightest colors. if you can find a shop that does a bad ass paint job, you can have them make it look so wet that tha paint drips off on tha freeway. maaaan........

Kandy paint doesn't change. Kandy paint is a paint that is suppossed to always look wet, and it always sparkles.
