so i was thinking to do something different for a paint job. an idea of just repainting it 433(winter forest green) or a sanding of the paint and a bondo and filler look with a clearcoat. something like

You want a bondo job with a clear coat?

Flat Olive (army) green with flat black hood.

Or, for a more 'normal' paint scheme, a gunmetal metallic.

Wintergreen Metallic. I wonder how that looks on one of those cars.

you could put this in the photoshop section, and ask nicley to have it panted any color you want that way you can see your color of choice without actually wasting the money to paint the car!......ahhh the wonders of photoshop...

In case your lost, the photoshop section is under the General Discuss section.!

I was thinking of doing that to my Winter Forest Green Outback when I got it repainted or going with GM's Dark Metallic Green (unsure of color name), but decided since I don't want to spend an arm and leg doing the engine bay and everything else I'll just go solid (mono tone) Winter Forest Green :neutral: . But as for whether green or Bondo'd cleared, ANYTHING BUT THE BONDO.
