DRAXF6 Member 92 Member For: 16y 9m 5d Gender: Male Location: Mt Druitt Sydney Posted 03/11/08 08:25 AM Share Posted 03/11/08 08:25 AM (edited) I have a Typhoon and its getting ready to be painted this weekend. I was going to two-tone it with Fantasy and Silver but my brother-in-law got a price on Fantasy and it was $408 plus tax for 250ml!!!! So I'm looking at over $1700 a litre including tax. I was told the paint is like 100% Harlequin.Can you really justify spending that much on paint for a daily driven car that goes to a shopping centre car park and will most probably end up with trolley dents all over..... So in the end of all this I have chosen another colour which I hope will look good. I'll post up pics when its all done. Edited 10/11/08 10:36 AM by Dagabond Pic added, moved and mcmerged....

You could almost say its coca-cola. I'm getting the sample tomorrow so If I don't like it, its back to the colour charts for another 2hrs!!! I hate choosing paint.

Guest Guests Posted 04/11/08 01:14 AM Share Posted 04/11/08 01:14 AM Coke FTW! Dr Pepper tastes like arse Seen a VY SS round my area that has a 2 tone paint job. Candy red on top with silver down the bottom & looks sweet! Make sure you get a nice contrasting pinstripe to break it all up & good luck with it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51306-two-tone-custom-paintjob-complete/#findComment-761859 Share on other sites More sharing options...
