Lol, no, I'm Caffy there too. :p

It's just that a lot of us have come here so we don't have to talk about that place anymore. The only time I visit 3Si anymore is when someone here links me to it. Otherwise I'm sure it's just the same stuff repeating endlessly over there.

a very rare exception to racing stripes sucking. his racing stripes really make his car pop. Ordinarily I'd say the only good paint job is solid black and white, but red has grown on me. While I'd never get it (nickname :p ull-me-over color) i do appreciate driving alongside red 3Ss.

Funny you should mention that, I was digging through some blue cars and came across this one which grabbed my attention:

:d rool:

But I doubt the effect would be the same on a 1st gen. The 99 conversion really brings that look home.

:stupid:

Then again, I was the one who led Kieth to tracking down that paint code many years ago.

It was my dream color, I just gave the idea to someone who was actually able to do it, and to it beautifully.

I have a Krypton Green + Black stripes R/T NA

I'd like to have a Black + Krypton Green striped R/T TT to offset it.

I was not the one to paint the car this color. When I first saw it I had to have it. The car is a POS and not worth the $ I have thrown at it, but the car has character, and thats what I like about it.

I believe that one is called Blurple... probably Courtney Chu's old car. That car has gone through a bunch of color changes over the years.

I think you should go with the 3sx drag car paint scheme hahaha

Here's a shot of what we did to my little bro's Eclipse:

Image

I tried photoshopping such a line between blurple/black on my car, but I can't find one that I like. The lines on the 3S are so pronounced and so close you'd end up ruining the car from some aspect.

Ah well, I'm off to the paint shop to see if they can't order House of Kolor. :)
