Re: My Cleaned Euro Stilo

the cream is the best so far! thats near exactly what i have in mind, i think it will match the interior perfectly.

fancy trying to make the face of the alloy red now? lol
but leave the dish chrome
 
Re: My Cleaned Euro Stilo

Yeh ive got CS4, but i downloaded it, so have no idea how to use it! lol
the colour i like is the colour that the new mini comes in, the cream colour (y)

i do like that yellow/gold though, would be expensive though, because the nearest colour match would be liquid yellow, which is a lambo colour with a green pearl over it

yeah the zipped image above. Its already cut out, all you should have to do is mess with the colours

i guess to do this go to here

and wiggle the lines back and forward :D mine is a ploppy 'elements'... 2.0 mind! :slayer: haha but should be the same

yeah its mad how much stuff anyone would do with the till. :) I always miss my red one and sometimes want to go back to that. All good now its coming together but its always in the back of the head.
 
Re: My Cleaned Euro Stilo

haha i was on a GM bus again last year... never again!!! :(

lost touch with the car scene and what was in and what wasnt. I thought it was a good idea lol the white/cream i mean:p

I guess colour is a tricky one trying to find the next best thing. Everything has been done thinking about it. well without having to go to far.

Cream with a very slight red flake just so you can see them blended in to the cream??? off the top of my head (n)(y)?

lmao just randomly have a tin of red flake in the garage :p NICE ONE!

yeah with the cream you mean or as is now?

i was thinking it would stand out well on the cream backgroud but i could be totally wrong :confused: haha Can you can get places to do samples?

i think i would leave the wheels though!

yeh the red flake on the cream! to tie it in more with the interior.. and it would look amazing in the sun.. not that we have much of it in this country..

i got the red flake about 6months ago, when i was plannin a colour change, but then i blew up my engine lol
i think i'll prob leave the wheels yeh, although they might look good the same colour as the car, cream/redflake

yeah go for it mate, looking at the pic above doesnt look like you can go wrong!

cream and flake wheels seem a good mix i will see if i can get a good photoshop going on them. Not the full red to bold for me though.

Thats what i was going to ask you. You got your engine from Fiat if i remember? I went to ask the plebs at Fiat Stockport but full of numpties and couldnt answer my question?

cream looks like the best option for me, i'll get m bodyshop to spray a bonnet or something with the metal flake effect, see how it looks

I got quoted £2600 from fiat, for half an engine lol

so the garage that do all my work sourced and fitted one for me :)

why, do you need a new one?

bigger than a 1,2 next year i was thinking and i have no real plans to change from a stilo so if this engine packed in i was after just replacing. 2600 hummm the way you went sounds better.

alfa gt next for me otherwise. Just need to wait for the insurance to come back down

i have got the cream just can think how to put a flake on the image haha
 
Re: My Cleaned Euro Stilo

Creams boring its been done to death. Liquid yellow is a renault colour aswell.

If you want to be slightly different just get it wrapped in a matte vinyl.

you only like it because it has your name in it ;) :p only joking mate :)

i liked the cream idea as said with the red flake but then I didnt even know it went in and out :bang: haha
 
Re: My Cleaned Euro Stilo

Cream/white has been done so much over the past 2 years its silly. Cars can look good in it still but imo they all end up looking the same as they all have the same mods done, ie smoothed, slammed, wide wheels and retrim.

well you probably know more than me on that one. Guessing that personally myself, done or not i wouldnt mind eitherway i.e slammed, widewheels etc as that is as extreme as i am going to go. Fiat extras for me from now on but then i am not after setting the pace. For someone like Coyle and looking to get to next big thing then i guess he could benefit. (y) I think colour is a tricky one?

i dont think i could go black (matte black) as we already have three black cars in the driveway.'NOT SAYING COMMON' as its not! Just the family likes black cars. Neigbours would have just looked and laughed if everyone had one on our drive :p

All good though matt (y)
 
Re: My Cleaned Euro Stilo

Colour makes or breaks a car and its a hard one to get right.

Black is the way forward, 5 of our cars are black and all our company cars are too lol

Im going for a bit of matte black on mine for the new show season ;)
