mcbrat Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 it'll only be proper if you're using paint code 45 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 Help me find some in an aerosol can Mick and i will. If I cant, i'll just have to use some off-the-shelf red... probably from Ace. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NV Zeno Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I kinda like the white myself... (But you already knew I was gonna say that:lol: :lol: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 But white doesnt match the hatch! -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachineAgeVictim Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 the black should be the spray rubber, and it would look good with the area under the side moulding in the spray rubber too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepenguin Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ok heres what needs to happen treat it to a bath first off and then go over it with a little primer once thats done go to the store get paint rollers and a gallon of paint and do it to it man.. joking should like nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 Mav, already ahead of you with the spray on rubber. IM gonna do under the doors and the fenders in either bed liner or the rubber. For the rims, of course I'll primer! And at least 4 coats of paint. Aerosol will do just fine, no need for roller and a gallon. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soobmater Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 looks hella tight brian, can't wait for the real deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I've gotten paint from both CarQuest and O'Reilleys. any auto parts store that mixes paint can take the paintcode and make it up, and put it in a can.... paint code 45 does fade pretty good, but yours looks like it's still pretty decent shape. usually $10/can...

Jerry DeMoss Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Nice job on the photo choppin'.I think it looks great!I thought about doing something similar with mine when I get pugs,but I am going to powder coat mine white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike W Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Hey Brian, when I painted the nose on my Hatch, I found that Duplicolor "candyapple red" was a perfect match. I'll try to dig up a leftover rattlecan to get the actual color code. Man I don't know about the red ring around the wheels. From a distance it looks like beadlocks and I'm not crazy about imitation bead locks. But nevermind...just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 Didnt think of it that way mike... but im sure when its all said and done its gonna look awsome. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subestyle18 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 looks close to what i have on my wagon, dont worry its going to be changed by the time its running. I had some red rims too for a while i was thinking of doing the oposite of you though, red spokes and black lip. [/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 If you scuff the rims really good and prime them, farm implement paint would be the stuff to use if you can find it in the right color. that stuff is about as bulletproof as paint comes if ya get the right stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
