Ceta and Stuff
 

as some of you may have seen... i picked up a LT1 T/A to swap my LS into. Its apparently some sort of custom color, i thought it was SOM, but who knows. i was always a fan of the CETA mod on the T/As, so now its my turn to do one. but what color? does anyone got any pics of anything besides black on a SOM car? perhaps a gunmetal? also what black do you think would look good? i was thinking either Gloss or Satin... i think complelte flat wouldnt look to good...

Some type of semi gloss.

Here you go, please excuse the crude cut lines:

If you want to try grey or something I saved a .psd so it's easy to change up.

Semi and Satin are the same, right ?

I think so. That's what I meant anyway.

yea i wasnt shure. lol

Semi

Yup

I believe semi will have a little more reflection than satin but not as much as gloss. I don't know any percentages but that's how it was explained to me.

Rogue status. Like rly?

sadly its already been thought about and eliminated from possibilty.

itll be somewere on the car... dont you worry.

Then I'd make the black as close to the tail lights as possible. I am somewhat disappoint.

I would go satin, i love the ceta mod

Well what is the theme for the car going to be? Rim color? Any other little touches you plan on doing to the exterior?

Once you know those details, makes recommending a shade and color easy for the CETA.

Possible Chrome on the rims... still a possiblilty on the CC-dubs from your friend :D

if not theres a 90% chance of black... and no Lego

So many options for Red/SOM TAs. I have a plethora of quality pictures with different themes & rims saved on my harddrive.


From Fox to Camaro to Bird. Come a long way there

Matte pink.

Satin or gloss black will look the nicest in my opinion, but any black is better than the way they came from the factory!

Then I would go gloss...

from shiniest to dullest here is the run down
gloss
semi-gloss
satin
matte
flat

went with satin. i love the way it looks. pics in a lil
