What about the inside colour?


My New IS V8 Build - Asi - 31-12-2017

are you tlaking about inside the door trims and etc.
they all getting painted white aswell mate


My New IS V8 Build - Lexusboy - 31-12-2017

Lilac would look good in the engine bay


My New IS V8 Build - russelllinn - 31-12-2017

or you could do it white as well?


My New IS V8 Build - Asi - 31-12-2017

i was thinking white aswell but i want something different. if you get what i mean


My New IS V8 Build - russelllinn - 31-12-2017

yeah know what you mean, you could go complete contrast and do black which maybe easier to keep looking clean, purple as you have said would prob look good, you could even add a metal flake for some bling Big Grin

was going to do black but i dont want it to look dull. want something bright. i like the idea of metal flake but the engine is going to be there for the bling Big Grin so purple will look nice. let me find that pic tonight.

Think if it was me mate, i'd do the car all white but in the engine bay do it white again but add a purple pearl topcoat, so the chrome off the engine has something to work with? Or something along those lines? Big Grin

Another thing i'd do is fill all the small holes in the inner wings that are not being used for bolts, to give a nice smooth tidy look to it, :thumbup1:


My New IS V8 Build - Asi - 01-01-2018

good idea to file the holes.
since the engine is out i now cant remember which holes were not used

Is it possible to hide the wiring to give the the engine bay a cleaner look?
