with an aw11 in dire need of a paint job soon likely to come into our hands, we are trying to decide what colour to paint it, so, here's some sample pics:
Black


Red


Blue (no I wont be fitting the 7 kit )


Note- I will be doing a plain paint job - ie no metallics, pearls, candies etc on this one, just needs to be quick and cheap.

Black is nice but a pain to keep clean, so maybe be like all the hairdresser SW owners n go red

Black, NO AW11/MR@ looks good in stock/normal red....black all the way...

Red is good. I don't like the blue. Black is...too dark.

Red, with black wheels

Even matt black is better than what it is now I reckon the white with black roof/pillars is a good option tho

You dont want a black car... PITA to keep clean.

You clean it...

Then you look over there ->

And then its dirty already.

Althoug in saying that, no one would have been able to convince me out of painting my car black at the time, It just had to be done.

I dont regret it, it looks pretty good, but I wouldnt do it again.

IMO, white = win for the AW11.

White with a nice pearl or something over the top to set it off would look mint.

Yeah sure, heaps of AW11s are white, but how many have really nice, mint looking paint?

AU my cars getting a similar paint job to that...dont go spreading it around...

Black is cool ( actually in summer it would be really hot!)

I already have two-tone on the sw11, I don't want to go making a habit out of it.

White is too boring without a pearl or something, and as I said I'm not doing anything fancy on this one (I will most probably be painting it outside...)

i say blue
red is too common and black is a b1tch to keep clean

How about something like the sherwood green found on some AWs? Just not the 2 tone part of it...

Paint it blue!!!!

Primer with clearcoat

All class

the blacks not to bad bit I reckon the Blue

Black.

Or glittery blueprint blue with no clearcoat

definalty black, with white mags, stalkers, nice

Primer gray with light black spray across it

Yup I reckon that would look good, or maybe an even slightly darker green. Either that or black.

i REALLY like those late model midnight blue ones......

my choice would be in order:
blue, black, white, red

but yeah black is a major PITA to keep clean

Black all the way....it's the colour which gives your car INSTANT sexynessss!!
