chownr 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Im giving the rally car a quick blow over in the next week or so and want to respray in a really vivid red colour. Current choice would be Colrado Red (same as Fiesta ST) but are there any other good vivid reds out there? What are they called and where can I find examples to view Any suggestions welcome Rich ps dont want anything too orange or anything too dark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paintguy 0 Posted January 30, 2008 If you're staying with a solid red (i.e. non metalic) then Colarado is a great choice. Vauxhall flame red is an alternative, but slightly more on the orange side. Another pretty vivid red is VW Flash red (LP3G), which might be worth a look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jim205GTI 3 Posted February 1, 2008 If i ever get the 205 resprayed it would stay red and i would be tempted to keep it a pug colour like my 306 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huckleberry 0 Posted February 5, 2008 I always thought about a red that was used on a Toyota MR2 (the last type) when I still had my red 205 gti. It seemed endlessly more red than the orange/pink roof I had on my gti Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That'll be all the xyrillic pearl that's in it When I painted my Audi I added a little touch of Crystal Silver Xyrillic, It doesn't do much in normal light, but under a strong sun it sparkles with all the colours of the rainbow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
