Should I Re-Paint My Car..

[simontibbett]

I am seriously debating painting my car like the Peugeot Le Mans car LMFAO.

With FAP and everything.

Should I for kicks? Or should I paint my new circle track Miata like it with a French flag and all? That might be the better one actually, I am literally thinking while typing thinking out loud for you all to throw options in.

I think something like the Porsche 917



or the old BASF cars....if you really want to hurt people's eyes..
(tell me if this pic shows up..i'm posting it from behind a firewall and can't see it)

[simontibbett]

Yeah they work, those would be cool too. I'm just an insane Peugeot fan lol.

That 917 paint job is tempting though...lol

[jesseealexander]

i voted circle track, but i think this is the paintjob we need



either that, or the most euro-trash, anti redneck paintjob you can think of. lets paint in plaid.

Roller job again? Might be a challenge, but would probably look cool.

as for Peugeot, I like the 905...my next one would be the 908 in blac/red/white



Unfortunatly the scheme follows the body lines of the car, so applying it to a flatter surface might result in such a distortion that it becomes unrecognizable.


Paint it up like an ambulance...but put wambulance on the side instead :lol:
Pictures of said car would circulate the internet in forums like wildfire hehehe (this being a seriously funny comment, not a insult).

[simontibbett]

Yeah, naw it'd be pretty easy though, I use foam brushes. Just tape off the shapes and take your time. I think it could be done easily with time and patience.

I like the E30 paintjob for circle track, but we need it worse, like French sponsors, rednecks hate French people.

[iJohnnyC.]

Yes, you should re-paint it!
My vote...
ChalkBoard spraypaint!
(I had this idea long before the 2007 Challenge guys did it!)
Then, you can "re-chalk" it whatever scheme you want...until it rains.

True I would have to adjust it to be right on a Miata but I think I could change it around so people easily recognize what it is.

^^ true, but it might be kinda cool to take the colors and BASIC design of a paintjob and adapt it to a different car, sorta like a throwback/tribute paintjob.

the idea here is to paint it in preparation for running at lanier speedway. dont ask, but simon and i talked about it last night and i think it should be tons of fun if i get to drive it lol.

oh my god chalkboard would be sick....

We will swap off drivers every weekend lol.

[jesseealexander]

lol works for me. i say if you get that parts car, we turn that into an extremely disgusting track *****. like, circle track, autocross, RALLYCROSS, dirt ovals, etc. ANY type of racing.

[simontibbett]

No circle track, to win, because they get $ lol.

[jesseealexander]

okay well still. we can put my stock suspension on it and go to a couple tennessee region RX events... please? lol
