New Exterior Custom Paintjob

I have an '04 RX8 in Winning Metallic Blue, and I would love to get some sort of custom paintjob graphics added to make it look a tad more racey.

I'm female, so I'm thinking of adding something pink...I'm not a designer so I have no idea what I want the design to be. I'm looking for a paint shop/detail shop/ custom racing paint job place that can help me design something and then do the work.

Does anyone have any recommedations?

I love my RX8!!

Wink Pink & blue......

Congrats on your car!

You are certainly in the right place to get something really custom and classy done.

....but pink on blue? I'm not loving it. You could get a lot better color scheme than that.

Post a picture when its done, we love custom jobs!

What about Yellow? I want something really artistic and edgy...and I love hot pink. But I think Bright yellow would look good too. Know of anyplace in LA or the surrounding cities that could hook it up?

Is this going on a stock RX8...reason I ask, is paint would be the last thing I would do. Pick your other modifications and then select a paint color that would match the styling of the other modifications. If you get paint now, and then change body kits, etc....you'll have a more pricey job ahead of you.

If you looking for something flashy, check out "house of kolor". They have a lot of pearlescent paint choices which may be what you are looking for. Something to make the winning blue stand out even more. You could even go Chameleon, but that wouldn't be my choice.

Good luck.

I agree with the black on blue as that is what I am going for also, but I do like the yellow/blue combo, just not for my car. I have seen a couple STI's that have the yellow Subaru vinyls on the blue and I like the way they look.
