Very nice, but on the verge of being too purple.

those tails dont look half bad. the color is real nice too.

personally, I think you should go with a silver shade.

That is the head of teamsolil's car. It looks a lot better in person, although I prefer the stock tail lights too. It has a body kit from Australia, I guess sols are big there. The owner's a great guy, always willing to help another sol owner out. I think there are more pics of his car at www.teamsolil.com

no, that car is mostly body work. Even the engine was left pretty much stock, only thing it has motor wise is an exhaust and a bunch of chromed parts. It's a show car fo sho.

Hey. where can you get your car repainted and how much does a good job cost? My car is Milano Red and I was thinking of painting it black. It might be too much of a hassel becuase the door sils and trunk/hood will be red still. What do you think?

Your best bet when changing the color of a car is to fully gut the car out. I mean remove the interior, engine etc. Take it to a reputable paint shop and tell them you want the engine bay and everything else repainted too. As for price, it all depends on the shop. A good paint job can cost anywhere from 1500$ all the way up to, well the sky's the limit.

Yeah man...i used to work in a body shop....a paint job can get expensive!!!
Believe me...get everyting painted too....the only thing that looks half tolerable is a black engine bay....that's it though
