I like the look of black on red. It sounds like you're going for the exact opposite of my car. Mine is red with black wheels and decals.

Oh, well, then that's different! What do you have in mind? A solid color or some pattern or what?

I wish it was any color other the black, but oh well, I'll work with it for now.

It'll be solid. Thinking of a high metallic blue maybe? It's up in the air right now. It won't be till next summer till i get anything done.

Got the rims painted! I love it, to each his own though. Also sprayed the yaris logo and relocated it




The start of the fun, it's snowing out right now, and I've yet to drive it in the snow. Going to an empty parking lot now to get a feel for it and have a bit of fun

Next up, respary mirrors and door handles. Attempt to replace the rear release latch with something a bit more sleek, new antenna and polish the head/tail lights. Tint windows and a full detailing.

Thinking about spraying the grill also, to much? I haven't decided.

i love the color of the rims. A few other places would accent it perfectly. Are you thinking of doing the entire grill or just an outline? Entire thing might be too much. Or could be just right.

This will be fully repainted at some point. The deal was just to good to pass up, I'd of been an idiot to say no based on color when I'm fully capable of respraying the entire car.

Actually think I'm going to go with classic Primer Red instead.

Badges will be sprayed to match.

Think it's a bit more unique then all black. Also need to re-spray the mirrors this weekend.
What do you guys think?
The red primer with a satin clear....

Full repaint in the summer.
Satin blue, black everything else.
Should be nice.
