My celi is red and I have a red and black scheme going, but I can NOT find a high temp paint that is red like my car. I have bought three different brands and they all come out more orangey-red than the car. So red is out, plus I don't know if red calipers on a red car would be too much. So I have a few options, I do have a white banner across the windshield with red lettering. How do you guys (and girls) think white would look? How about yellow? Black just seems like it wouldn't look any different. Take into consideration I have silver wheels. (RS Limited mase 17") Thanks for the help everyone!!! :wave:

Honestly, I think the red woulda looked fresh if you could have matched it.
Personally I wouldn't go for colors like yellow or white with the red unless u really have somethin else that matches it on the car (i.e. the Celica and Toyota overlay stickers in the back).
My vote: painted silver (not chrome / aluminum! it looks cheap).

What brand of paint is that?!?!? I have tried three different kinds and ALL of them where not red like our cars. Any help would be appriciated!!! Thanks...I like the red, It looks hot! :thumbup: But you shoulda see the colors these companies where calling "fire red" and the like-:puke:
Yeah, the red looks cool on a red car. I have a silver celica, and I painted mine silver. It matches well, and if you didn't know, you'd think they came that way.
If you can't find a good red paint, silver or white would be cool too. Don't paint them yellow!

Thanks guys.... for all the support, info and feedback. Keep it coming. I PMed Badboy and he said he wasn't sure what brand he had used (thanks anyway bro) so if anyone knows of a red high heat brand that matches, PLEASE post it up here. I really like the way the red looks!
