Tigz™ Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 I thought about it, I'm just not sure due to the amount of people who have used the colour.Does look good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 seen you mention raven blue thats really nice...That might be nice and cool on a non GTi shell. Would make people look twice. Standard colour, but a twist!R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

payna Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 raven blue would indeed look nice - i would say stick with an oem colour thats in the range now so that you can still live with it in years to come... subtle is the way to go imo andi.cant wait to see this little beasty back on the road! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wub:" border="0" alt="wub.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subtle modder Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 nimbus is a nice colour but as you said yourself, has already been done i really think it would have looked good in purple especially amaranth but each to their ownoh and as above what colour is the bay?wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vworks41 Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Can't believe I've missed this thread!! great project style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumbsup:" border="0" alt="thumbsup.gif" /> If you haven't chosen the color already how about Aviator Grey from the tt range.

Tigz™ Posted July 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Thanks mate.I've chosen Nimbus grey, with the scrict instruction that if I call him and tell him I want to change my mind to completly ignore me!Spoke to him yesterday when I got back from Spain, the engine bay is cleared out and cleaned ready for paint.The Polo GTI clutch has been fitted and the 1.4 gearbox has fitted perfectly which is a relief.The painter is back from his hols on Tuesday so next week the 'bay will be painted so the engine can be fitted.

Tigz™ Posted August 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 How about a dark aubergine colour...I've chosen Nimbus grey, with the scrict instruction that if I call him and tell him I want to change my mind to completly ignore me!I've told him to ignore what I told him last time and let me change my mind.Realised just how close the colour was to Mitchs car and think I may get bored of it after a while any way.Going for Silvers' suggestion!

The subtle modder Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 what about that dark berry colour often seen on the corrados? that polished up looks amazing style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vworks41 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 (edited) Still think Aviator Grey would would be awesome border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> Edited August 2, 2007 by vworks41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 I think a colour that looks nearly black in darker light until the sun hits hit and it is a nice dark purple would look good on a Lupo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris260 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Definitely the right decision not to go with nimbus even though it's a nice colour. The Aubergine on mk2 g60's is a nice colour. Royal blue on the g60's is another good one, looks nearly black but really nice when the sun hits it. I like that Aviator grey too, thinking about that for my tin top mk1. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="B)" border="0" alt="cool.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The subtle modder Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 okay bit different, Vauxhall sapphire black, looks heavy metali black when polished up but when sun hits it its got a purple pearl, use some red and blue in the laquer and it would bring the pearl out even more?wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mik3y Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 i'm loving this thread!! <IMG SRC="http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif"> style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />Lol me too!

Rich Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I'd definately stay away from the blackberry on corrado's. It's a really bad choice. Also mulberry and definately that blackberry polo colour. really bad bad bad choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
