Ok so i suck at visualizing thing and i have to always ask if they look good especially car colors. So i have a 280zx slick top that is brown and i dont want to take everything apart to get it painted so i want to choose a color close to brown but i dont know what to choose. I so far have orange but i dont know what type to go with (i know i dont want it to be bright). And a cream color from the 2011 jeep wrangler as show below. So i would really like to know your opinion on what you would choose from those 2.

 

Can you post a pic of your Z as is - in daylight? Sounds like you are doing a total color range switch...

 

yeah i will when it stops snowing which is like on monday. but mean while i will post one from google that looks like mine. and a pic of one that is close to the jeep color.
the dark brown ones are like the color i have and the other 2 are the closest i could find to the jeep color.and i like racing orange as my other choice.

 

Photoshop is a good tool:

thanks Nismo i needed that

 

If you're getting a cheap paint job (eg not taking the glass out, etc) you can still paint it whatever colour you want. They aren't going to be perfect because they tape it right up to the rubber anyhow. Pick a colour you like - racing orange would be cool - lots of S3s painted orange but not a lot of 280ZXs...

 

Yeah i was into racing orange a while back just didnt know if it would look good but so far i thing i am going to stick with it. Especially because my car has bad luck and it needs new paint . because first when i bought it it sliped of the dolly and the door got scraped than i scraped the fenders like 10 times rebuilding the engine and 2 days ago the hood came down with wind closing it while i was installing the radiator making a dent on it. So im going to need paint pretty soon(racing orange).Also that color on the s130 you have looks nice what is ?

 

The color I'm shooting for on my 280zx.
Someday..=/
It'd go good over your brown=D
