vr6storm 0 Posted December 1, 2005 Porsche's Panther black from the 80's/90's was quite a deep non metalic black IIRC my fave black/blacks are Porsche's Basalt black and Mercedes's Blue/Black....think they're both metalics tho Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMW jet black, that's a pretty 'dark' black. There must be more shades of black than anything else :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't like the paint scheme I did on my Type 2 van then?!? :roll: Looked rather good, although the (matt) flourescent green pin stripe WAS a little overkill... The eventual plan was to laquer the whole thing to make it gloss, but I scrapped the van before I got around to doing that bit... :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishill 0 Posted December 1, 2005 L041 is it just me or do the paint colours for the corrado remind anyone else of the name of the teraforming colony type place in Aliens? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
