    Colour decision time, cant decide

    I think Matt colours look great, the only reason i'm stuck on colour choice is cuz the def has to be the easiest vehicle to do a colour change without having a green body and red engine bay etc. 2 of me mates have just re-sprayed their hi-lux's they've gone for different shades of the original...

    Colour decision time, cant decide

    I agree with what ya saying but i enjoy paint / body work and for the extra £30 it would cost i might as well spray it. I wouldn't pay for some spray shop to paint it cuz yeah it will get ruined within a few outings. £50 isn't even enough for a good day at the pub any more, not with the prices...

    It was yellow, then light red with blue doors and then painted with enamel paint and using a brush, jus gonna give it a quick spray for the sake of £50. it'll soon be scratched and dented again but at least all one (similar) colour.

    All panels are straight apart from bonnet needs replacing, small dent pass door and small crease on pass wing top, a brighter red would be less prep work for me. If not colour coded roof then white or black? if running black wheels etc.

    Time the def was re-sprayed, Toyin with cherry red, decuma grey et the moment, it will soon be on black modulas and contimplating colour coding the roof. Been thinking about it for a couple of months and really can't decide. Any suggestions would be very helpful thanks... Not the best pic to...
