cant decide

[dimma]

im going to spray one of my dimma clios but i cant decide on the colour.its naples red im thinking of black or white or maybe naples again.someone help me choose please.

[white16valver]

You need a photoshop king to help you ;) lol

White would look pretty awesome but is very much in fashion now so would probably go out of fashion again quite soon.

Black is boring ;)

How about one of the subtle flip paints that Renault do as standard on some of the scenic models etc?

[drsmith1979]

personally i love the Dimma in Williams Blue, any of its varieties....

Old School but for me just gives it some creditability instead of looking like a 'bodykit' which was thrown on a clio etc....

Stealthy Black would look good too, isn't there a new process of 'wrapping' which can put 'matte black' stealth like finish on the whole car with no paint?.. i remember seeing a Ferrari Challenge Stradale and it looked mean!

[LEIGH-ANNE]

^^^^ he has a point!

I don't think u should go for any unusual colour it might look a bit tat IMO

[Jamie.]

Can we see the pics of said cars as I love dimma's.

[pieman]

You decided upon a colour yet?

[Wobba]

Don't think I've ever seen a black Dimma...


Good effort there, got some of the nasty bits out of the way! Keep us posted :)

[LEIGH-ANNE]

[Daz.]

grey, white or yellow.

[schakal]

alpine white with some red detailing :wink:

[Wobba]

ooooooooo love that^^

Me too!!

I was thinking maybe Alpine colours as well.

I've seen a creamy white one before. I'll dig out the old Max Power mag with it and another turbo Dimma.

[dimma]

i was thinking of a really bright clean white with a carbon vynal roof and matbe a carbon bonnet.i dont like the creamy whites.

[dimma]

Don't think I've ever seen a black Dimma...


Good effort there, got some of the nasty bits out of the way! Keep us posted :) seen a black one on a google image search one time looked nice.my first chioce was black but most say white looks better.

[Wobba]

Motorsport white? Carbon bits sound good too. There is a car with a carbon roof in the projects section...it's white too :)

[Allan]

I do like the idea of white, but i can see it being out of fashion at some point...

Then again the whole car is 80's

My personal Pref is Williams Blue after Meggy yellow of course :D

[dimma]

just thought i would put up a few pictures of were i am now with the car. http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/xr4097.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/xr4098.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/xr4099.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/xr4099.jpg

so with the dimma kit they keep the original steel arches. Can you take one looking up into the rear arch please.

[dimma]

so with the dimma kit they keep the original steel arches. Can you take one looking up into the rear arch please. yes they cut off part of the rear arch quater panel then fold the inner arch out the quater panel.then put on the wide arch quater panel.ive got a picture of the arch before i repaired it. http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/newpics339.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/newpics340.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/newpics342.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/newpics343.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/12345010.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/12345013.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj39/dimmaclio/12345016.jpg
