Does anyone have pictures of a metal paint job on a tC? i have a white one and i haven't done anything to it yet and i don't know where to start?!?!?! someone help!!!


THANKS! (please send pictures)

 

come again? btw pics of you and i can help!

 

U mean u want Colred Metal Flakes mixed in the paint??

Like a lowrider car???

I wouldnt do that w/ a Sport Compact car....

 

im gonna go with teecizzle on this one. get some springs tints exaust maby some rims and that tc will be lookin good!

 

Do it! I am come summer. Either an artic blue flake on FM or a blood red. Was going to do a 2 tone....but either way I have to re clear the entire car.

 

thanks guys.. i have a white one, and i've ran across some white metal flakes, but i haven't seen pictures on another tC to make my final decision! there is sooo much to do with a tC, and man i have no clue haha. what about an all black grill!?


thanks for the advice!

 

Look for VRD or FIG grilles. Clean grilles with no emblem or anything. Both have pluses and minuses but both worth the $.

 

White on white? Do a different color.

 

How typical.

 

lol... i wouldn't think about it too much

 

Good old Yanki!

 

Yea, definitely look into VRD, a year later and I still have people asking where I got it... Plus it snaps right in, like the OEM one... I think the Fig one you have to screw into the bumper, but i could be wrong...

 

FIG requires drilling and zip ties - but it is no where as bad as that makes it sound. Plus you get a little more customization if you want it (different powder coating and such). But ya, for a simple clean look, and ease of installation - VRD.

 

JOKING!

 

i looked into it for mine to throw in some orange flake; and it almost had a lil too much of an old school hot rod or lowrider look to it.

are you really joking?

 

^No he isn't, lol.

 

i love this uptight forum

 

Did anyone end up doing this? If so i would like to see pics of it.
