Midnight red? :shrug:


I like the oxford white with the new headlights. Neither set of wheels looks right with the white though.


Shavedsvt has the blue almost like the pre98 blue and it looks pretty nice. T-red looks good when it is nice and new. Not sure what to tell you.

Screw T-Red. They're everywhere. I'd probably paint it the bright royal blue that the Pre-98s got. Awesome color.
somebody say royalblue :shrug::o:laugh: but yeah I kinda like it also:drool:
My self

I have always been a fan of moonlight blue from the pre-98 contiques
me too :drool::o

I honestly really like T-red. It would be pretty easy to prep/ touch up the existing t-red and go all out on a high build/high gloss clear to respray everything with it. Hose it down and cut-n-buff the living crap out of it, and it would have a lot of people nutting left and right. A color touch up and reclearing the whole thing will take less man-hours and less material, which will save you some coin.

I always wanted to repaint my CSVT Sonic Blue, but decided to just add a deep blue pearl to the ebony black (though not as much as I would've liked in hind sight). If you have any real body work or just want a different look, adding a heavy pearl or FINE metallic to a batch of T-red might be a good way to go to recolor the car. Lots of options there to play with, keeps it pretty much the same color.....but clearly custom to those in the know. Though, I would personally try to spray the car as assembled as possible to attain a consistant pearl/metallic coverage. :shrug:
 
ok gotta ask what about a torch red csvt anyone do that yet?? think it would look good?

Torch Red or Victory Red would be a good solid/bright red IMHO.

Too many ugly as sin lowriders have ruined a lot of HOK candies for me. They're just tri-coat paints anyway, candy apple red is just the translucent (sp?) midcoat, the base coat (silver, charcoal, black....) would have a big difference in the final color. Blue Blood is my favorite HOK
