Hey All,
Would the colour on the new camaro be close to the yellow on the new XR's?  I am thinking of changing the colour of my XR when I get the XR50 bodykit put on. So the car would be: BF 19" F6 Typhoon rims XR50 bodykit Black cobra stripe kit Dark window tint |

acid rush, the metallic colour on the early XR's would be closer than Rapid Yellow.
add a bit more yellow in acid rush, to lighten it up and it should be close.

ahhhh ok, to make octane like the camaro, add a bit of gold and a metallic fleck, cause octane is a flat colour.

I think it still need a Gold Metallic through it though ... Octane is just a tad too flat for this ... unless you put it through as a pearl finish over the top of Octane.

Mate Octane with some flek in it will look sensational !
Mate if you did your p/s 3wks ago while my T3 is in the panel shop I would have seriously thought about doing it...even though the diehards would have killed me lol....

Maurie ... I think all AFF members would have thrown rocks at you have you stripped back that beautiful Blueprint paint and changed the colour.
I do agree with adding a fleck to Octane though.

What's a ball park figure for getting the car resprayed in a stock/premium au colour? I'm looking at getting the dints and scratches from the previous owner taken out. What would it cost do have a detailer give it the once over?
Sorry for bein slightly off topic. That camaro looks niiiiice! The PS is decent too! |

octane is flat taxi orange. The metallic yellow off the camaro would look 100x better.
