Re: throw them colors at me!

I Plan on going with a green when i paint. It will probably be some where a little darker than the light Olive with a metalic in it and of course the classic white

Re: throw them colors at me!

but then im wanting to go with a nice red with metallic in it.
my truck is red on the inside and i dony feel like taking everything apart and sanding the inside down since it already looks decent!
but i dont know if the metallic red would throw it off since the inside is just a nice bright red?
whould do u think?

There are several metallic blacks out there. I just looked at a Black Sand Pearl on the 2010 Toyota Corolla S that has silver, blue and red metallic reflections in it when the sunlight hits it. Take a look (in full sunlight) at your local Toyota dealer. Its also on Scion, Tacoma, and Yaris.
