How about a matte black exterior,With black wheels and darkened rear-lights? it will give it an aggressive diabolic look...

I appreciate bro am taking the rear spoiler suggestion. I dnt knw whether thier's any good mechanic to fix the post updated plastic claddings around ma area, what else? The white colour, I think is too basic for me. Plz if there is any other colour u know that will go well with it lemme know.

I may be going with cream colour and light grey plastic side claddings with a light grey tiny spoke wheels 2 match.

If i were you i would maintain the original colour but makes it more appealing and with a darker claddings in that same colour too.It will protect more than outrightly changing the colour totally.This is also good for easy retouch incase of some dents in future afterwards because the colour number is in your fuel fillap, always easy to obtain handily.

Give it to a good painter, this is very important, since this is the image of your car and you'll be proud of it overtime.

Since I am more visual than most, I like to see pictures to fully understand concepts

Orange with the HUGE rear spoiler? No No No!!! Lol! shocked

Keep the original cream? I would say no, give it a more manly colour that actually says that the car has been restored.

Dark to black colours? YES! ! !
With the dark colour, you can play a lot with the rims. Either powder coating and adding orange/red accents or flat black

Dark is understated elegance IMHO

i couldn't get the 150k i needed at least 2 gv d car a good restoration. Had it been i restored it real good, they wn't be talking of selling the car. Now they are planing on selling and worse still, the car they're keepin in preference 2 dat is a late 80's bluebird which i hate with passion. There is liltle i can do cox am still under someone, had it been i had the money 4 the restoration, money could have silenced all that. Anyway prior to this i decided to maintain the original color, buh with a grey side pads and grey alloys to match. Sad the dream couldn't come true.
