Paint Experts? Satin Black...

[Bishop]

it's a custom mixed sealer that was done a while ago but has OEM black bumpers. The wise thing would be to hold off, save up a couple hundred for the Bimmer paint and access to a real spray booth but you know how people are...they just want something asap that is differant and looks a little better than what they have now. It's fine with me bc i've been wanting to experiment with satin black so i can figure out what color i want to do my rollcage (so it blends in with my all black interior)

What color you thinking...? What wheels and interior? I don't like silver on integra's for some reason but love charcoal/graphite...especially if you're adding carbon fiber to it.

So the satin black pre-mixed by ppg is that just the base coat? If so, would you be putting the clear on it too even though its just temporary?

I have thought about a brandywine candy(dark red)...a darker orange (not like imola, a bit darker) I have fat 5's right now that were painted black but i am planning on re-doing them bronze. Interior is stripped from front seats back and painted flat black. I am going to be getting a 6pt. roll cage in this year sometime wich will also be painted flat black. My seats i will get will be black and i plan on getting black carpet too. Door panels are black with those kinda dark greyish inserts. As it sits right now, seats are the greyish color and same with carpet, everything else is black. This is the orange (or alittle darker) i want but i dont know the paint code...
