Just picked this 93 coupe up recently from Chris (cbpldc..on here). It's a nice solid coupe, and he did a great job on the v8, and 5 lug swap. I'm just kinda burnt out on any red colors. Only problem is with the interior being red, it kind of limits what colors I can have it painted so it blends nicely. Any ideas appreciated. Chris (plated) is waiting on the car. Right now I'm leaning torwards some sort of Grey. Would love black, but I have a gravel driveway and a bunch of horses so keeping it looking clean would be a pain from all the dust. Post up some color ideas. My brain hurts...:confused:

I'd love to see an 8-9 second car painted hot pink with that on the hood just so when people talk shit you can still blow their doors off and laugh.

Interior can always be changed... paint it whatever color you like... If you are putting any more money in it, you can always buy new upholstery and can recover the seats and just dye the plastic.... wouldnt be hard

Actually the red interior has grown on me. Chris has a color in mind that sounds pretty sweet, and should flow good with the interior also. He's the Charlie Daniels of the spray gun, so it should look sharp..:cool1:
