I want to paint my 90 Talon TSI in the next couple of weeks, but I can't think of a paint scheme.Any Ideas? I was thinking maybe, black with ghost skulls or ghost skull flames and a graveyard mural on the hood(I've always wanted to do this on a vehicle).ANY color or Design.Best idea gets a case of beer(your choice).

How about "black"? One solid color is always a nice paint scheme...sometimes my black roof on the white and on the maroon car is almost a bit too saucy for me to handle.

I get bored with solid color schemes and end up changing paint jobs every couple of months, but when I do custom stuff I usually keep it that way for at least a year.So I gotta do something different, so I don't get bored with it to quick.

Gotta agree with chris on this one, black or maybe blue would be good colors. Custom paint just attracts to much of the "wrong" attention, wether it is from cops or theives.

Maybe some subtle flames, like really dark gunmetal on a black car so they don't stand out too much, but when you get up close, you can see them.

Anodize all the panels!!! i dont know if its legal but it would look sweet!

I still/have always dreamed about having a chrome car with miror window tint. The whole car being chrome dipped or something. Then I would spend all day driving around laughing at all of the people I pissed off because of the reflection. If I become a millionaire and you see a car like that, it will be me on the inside.

I would say a dark metallic green with some type of ghost flame worked in (or ghost skulls like you were talking about). I just love dark green on the 1g. I saw one at the shootout in July and fell in love!

My favorite is a nice pearl white with a VW gloss black roof.

I really like the ghost stuff worked in so it doesn't exactly jump out at a glance but when you look longer you can see the real beauty behind the paint..... Also if you get bored w/ the paint on your cars have you ever thought about buying a car, painting it, drive it for a year, then sell it for probably more than your got it for cause your work is crazy... I would imagin that would cost a hell of a lot if you didn't do it yourself.

Do you paint cars? Cuz if you do i'd like mine painted. Its a 91 talon, just white/ black basic. It already is but could use a re paint.

LMK

Yeah I paint them myself and will do it for others, but I have to paint 2 of my vehicles soon and I've got some electronics stuff I have to get on the market ASAP, so it will be a couple of months.

I kinda like the green idea, but I can't picture how the skulls will look.What color skulls do you think would work?

Hot pink w/ yellow teletubbies and purple barneys all over.

you could do them a kinda ghost look with a little different shade of green. btw what other car are you painting?

My 98 GSX

custom paint is sweet :banana:

go black with silver bone tribals and put a silver grim reaper on the hood. swiss cheese tirbals too. then do silver and black interior.

thats your car? I have seen that before in a pic. Very nicely done paint that must have taken a ton of hours with the airbrush! i am guessing that you didn't do it yourself.

thanks, caleb nelson from smooth customs did all the paint. he is a pimp daddy with the air brush.

damn that is nice airbrush work! must have cost a small fortion though. just wondering what year/ make.

sorry to be OT.

Eh i dont like it. Good skill but nasty color scheme.

95 talon with eclipse taillights and blitz body kit. caleb estimates the paint worth 8-10k. the interior is getting done this winter and should be even more crazy, the dash will be a 1 off custom fiberglass unit. we worked out a trade and i bagged his truck and did some work on his stratus.
