what do you guys think about air brushing??

nothing over the top, but something tasteful??


either a mural on the bonnet, or flames down the side, or a little character on the fuel cap???


i was wondering what people thought, and how much it costs??

I think airbrushing is sorta on its way out, but then again if u do it tastefully and not over the top it can actually look pretty good..... As 4 costs better to talk to the people who do it, so that u can explain to them what u want done and then they can tell u costs for paint and labour.... A simple mural will probably cost $400 - $500 for a good quality job

As many of you will know my car is a very shiny red, the kind that takes on an orange tinge in some light conditions (like the monaro colour). It had just been polished and was parked outside my work (90 deg parking). Anyway a VX commodore s-pack in tiger duco (gold) pulled in beside the exa and i was thinking that the two colours really go well together.

I dont think id ever do this, but a red exa with an orange front wold look pretty sweet. By front i mean the bumper and maybe halfway up the bonnet the colour fades into the red in a ~ wavey kind of shape. Like a splash rather than flames or anything. Just a thought...

:eek: I think that airbrushing is pretty cool if its done well.But everyone gets flames and the like so i only really like it now if its something original and it catches my attention.A good mural is always good!!
