what colour!!!

[vl-05]

project car ready to paint cant decide on a colour , originally white. Two tone? will it suit a 1987 vl or just a nice colour with a pearl? or back to white nice clean colour? help!!:drink: :b:

hmmmm its your car and you have to drive and look at it. I reckon white with silver along the bottom is classy.

White is too ordinary, nice but ordinary. Dark tailights maybe bright car, not fluro...yuck...seen to many deteriated fluro vls, go a nice metallic or pearl, lighter colour stands out more but whatever your favourite colour is. One colour looks better than 2 tone even if its a calais. Even White with a pearl looks nice.

Also should pick a colour 2 suit your surroundings, like i park my car on dirt everyday so i don't want a black car.

I am either going metallic cream vl calais on it's arse with 18 chromes, or sparkly silver pearl with group A kit maybe airbrushing.

red always looks good i reckon or a light blue like on the monaros but yeah light colours look better.

hi jacking your thread for a bit, but im thinking of doing my vl matt black just to see what it looks like! what do you guys think? and i think if you get a nice bright white it would look sick man! with the body kit aswell!

 

[bradvt98]

no matt black looks good on old hot rods and stuff but not on a commodore that's my opinion anyway i think it looks like it's only half done or something you want it all nice and shiny.

heres a matt black vh!
i think it looks sweet as!

VH looks good because it's chrome, don't do it to a plastic VL!

By the way that VH is awesome, who's is it or where can I find more pics of it?

As for colour.. something bright, but something custom if you can afford it, sick of seeing hothouse or another hero colour on older cars

Are you leaving the kit on? If so don't go two tone. And even then its up to you.
