I like the mist blue with the hre wheels.powder coat the inside of wheel gun metal grey.if the calipers are red it will really off set the light body color.I personally like the body to look like it could have a factory paint color,with all the late model underpinnings.sweet car any way you go.you could leave it in primer lol

I like the mist blue with the Ice Wheels. Powder coat the inside of wheel gun metal grey. Paint the calipers red and will really off set the light body color. Looking very nice......

My mustang was not done yet, and there were no registration spots for brycen's honda so no timetrials and the street rod nationals were kind lame like usual. Randy had to cancel on going to Rallye race in lancaster. So you did not miss much by not coming over the hill. But the front end on your nova is looking rather nice if I do say so myself.

Just to add to the vote orange orange orange orange. The black cherry looks good but to subdued. The black with dark gray or black wheels and hoops would look sinister though, but kind like my truck. But if I was going to get a new ZO6 a black on black with red calipers would be bitchen, But I still think orange. So that is 5 more votes for in this post.

hay John it sure looks like this poll is gonna clear things up, with 20% and 22% in the last 3 catagories, I'm sure the decision is crystal clear.

If you were on the million dollar show and you had just polled the audience and got this response, I think you last and final answer would be.........................UUUHHHHHMMMMMM. :squint:

I say Blue w/ Ice wheels. I like Roger's suggestion on the gun metal centers w/ red calipers.

\biased as I had a Lemans blue '67 Nova I regret letting go.

Love the orange and HRE combo.

Steve Chryssos
06-28-2007, 05:52 AM
Orange/HRE all the way. Just do it!! :spank2: :wedgie: Some things are best left delegated to your builder. This is one of those things. Any of those combinations will look good on such an extraordinary build. But the Orange/HRE combo will best match the car's aggressive character.

If you just can't pull the trigger on Orange, try darkening it with some red. Think Tomato. Or go with a bright blue like Ford Grabber Blue.

Stay away from the plane billet wheels like above. They are just not right for all the hightech and ultra trick fab work on your car. Go with HRE or similar save the billets for a more resto themed car like mine.

Its a bit out there but we have a new Gold color at Lexus. Might check it out on a IS250/350. Your car makes the statment in itself. I would stay away for a bright or flashy color.
