Default what color

should i paint my baby lexie? hehe.

i was thinking the chameleon color with white pearly and pink along with the silver. i know it can be done.. but what do you think? i want custom colors and no color other people have. i get the colors and paint quoted this week...

I know i should be asking Todd from TM but I want your opinions as well.


hehe.. I know Todd may be reading this.. just wanted to let you know that you are the best sponsor and the best tuner in SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA so don't think i'm ignoring you with the paint job!~ hehehe

again fellas, let TM know I sent you there

Paint it Top Secret Gold or Chrome since you will get that extra attention.

Talking how about...

we make it all the colors of the GS's on CL, like white, black, blue, silver, red, TIE-TAY-KNEE-UHM, and the other cool colors.. and stick CL stickers all over it... DEFINITELY A HEAD TURNER!

Alexis..... some candy transparent blue over your silver would look absolutely sick.....



totally OT, but driving through Manhattan yesterday pimpin da lex, I noticed a late model Range Rover 4.6HSE sittin on chromed 22's with some funky purple chameleon paint scheme.....Upon closer inspection the leather was dyed purple to match.......


For the love of G-d, please don't do that to your lex and make it look like a Mary Kate cosmetic mobile...

hhehe... i was about to get coach leather wrap interior or something else.. LV and Gucci are getting played out and they are pretty fake... since i have some friends who know people at the coach factory, i was thinking of wrapping the interior with coach. what do you think? do you think it's not going to match since i'll be painting my car again? that transparent blue sounds good now.. i need to get quotes from friends.
