Well it's been three weeks since my accident and I'll be driving the car by next weekend! epper:

The insurance company wanted to simply "fix" the damaged parts on my 8 month old Magnum. I wasn't having any of that. I demanded and recieved all 100% new OEM parts for the ride.

So, I have a brand new hood and SRT8 nose and they need paint. While my gut reaction is to go with a paint scheme like Electrofied's or Redfox's and I have a couple of days to decide, I'd like to get the input of my LXforums friends first.

Satin white the grill and the hood, that would be realy cool! Just my .02 but its only worth about -.5

 

[M-Square Magnum]

Go for grey/red instead of black/red!

 

[1MRMOPAR]

M-square - Grey/red would be really cool! I agree anything but red/black, its been done too many times already.

 

[M-Square Magnum]

I'm seriously thinking about painting my car before NOPI.

 

[FactoryD]

That would be cool! Any photoshopers up for the task?

If you do this PLEASE follow the theme through the roof and rear of the car. It makes no sense to only 2tone the hood and front. It ends up looking like you just put someone elses hood on your car that way.

Good luck!

 

[FactoryD]

I plan to do that. I just can't do it at the same time.

 

[Guest]

Cool. I hope it turns out great!

 

[FactoryD]

:bump:for me

2 tone it with Grey (or Tan) to match interior... that would look tight.

 

[MySRT]

A gray to match the Foose Nitrous.

 

[M-Square Magnum]

Don! I thought you were at the beach.

 

[MySRT]

I leave tomorrow.

 

[M-Square Magnum]

Oh I'm leaving for GA in the morning.

 

[MySRT]

Have a safe trip and I will talk to you after the 6th. It will be time for another M&G so you can fill us in on the SE Shindig.

 

[M-Square Magnum]

Cool. We'll have to do it on the 19th or 20th though. I'll be leaving for vacation on the 6th. Disney here I come! Sorry Factory D about the hi-jack. Now back to the paint...

 

[ColeMonkey]

I would photoshop it for you since I have the program, BUT, I haven't figrued out how to do anything yet.

Let me put it this way! Since I am in the Great Northwest and saw Electrofied's (Jason's) paint scheme up front, I can tell you that the paint scheme on his ride is AWESOME!! (Also check out my boy Magnum Maniac) his is with a different color. Maniac....you should explain your scheme to FactoryD. Maniac even has a "gray trim" that separates the colors....it's cool as hell when you see it up front!!!! :rock:

Anyway...go with the car's lines when you 2tone it. It's much better! :rock:
