 Posted: Fri Jun 03, 2011 5:07 pm Post subject: Painting the 5.0 |
 |
|
| So my 2011 is full of scratches and never looks clean because it's black and it drives me crazy. I live down a dirt road and its almost impossible to take care of a black car like it needs to be. My solution is to repaint it a brighter color... something that hides dirt and small scratches better. I'm not gonna paint it an OEM color cause I'd rather trade it in if I went that route. So that leaves me with custom colors and I have one picked out. It's for sure not for everyone, but lets hear your opinions. |

| Actually I'm gonna make my own color. I already have the formula made out. It's really close to what you see here. |

| I think the burnt orange would look better, or maybe a different shot of that orange. But the angle or something makes it look gold(ish) IMO |

X2. I really don't like the pic that's posted on here. But Jeff showed me his phone today (which he already painted this color) and it looks better. Just this pic looks weird
