Doogs Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 Agree with Hendo about the Commodore green. I have spotted a few of these in the flesh and thought it would be quite a nice colour on an older car, and it has not been done to death like Atomic Green (yet). Quote
KEhendo Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) yeh, i was hoping it would look like that metallic blue and matte back one that was for sale(maybe still is?) but in green. EDIT: this one Edited March 25, 2010 by KEhendo Quote
silverra23 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 The problem with the trend colours... eg. the current Holden green, atomic green, the bronzes/golds from the 90's... is that they are colours of that moment in time, and look sh*t house in 5 years time when fashions change. The simple whites, creams, and other solids from the era of those car suit them well and still look good 40 years on. I would rather paint it one of those so that in 5 years I am still happy with the colour I painted my car! Quote
abbott Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Posted March 29, 2010 after much research through multiple websites and tryin to read a bit of japanese i have found the colour i like on rollaclub after all, the beige 11 in chobis's gallery from the cruise with the 5 ke11s does everyone agree to this being a good colour? or possibly this colour http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=11669 Quote
LukeAE71 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Posted March 29, 2010 There is an army green colour the VE Commodores are coming out in now try finding it on net It is not metallic therefore it would suit the old school and it is a great colour. Its what I would paint my 20 :D Quote
abbott Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Posted March 29, 2010 the poison ivy green i think its called? Quote
LukeAE71 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Posted March 29, 2010 the poison ivy green i think its called? No thats a bright green and would look wrong. The army green is a new colour which I have noticed. I would take a photo for you at work but I would lose my job :D Quote
