My car was being painted. Well, it is now completely done and I'm picking it up tonight. I have a 1999 Civic and it was painted Arancio Atlas, a Lamborghini color. I actually saw it the night before last and it was enitrely painted except for the outside of the doors which were off the car. I'm really impressed with some of the things the guy has done, such as not painting over the VIN stickers on the doors jams and the like. I've never had a car painted before and that may be a common practice but still, I appreciate the extra effort that was involved. Anyways, some of you had asked me to post pictures once I had it back and I intend to do just that. Hopefully tonight I can find a decently lit area and get a few pictures. I'll post them in this thread.

Here's the color on the car it was made for:



BTW, I'm so excited!

That colour certainly looks good on the Lambo.

I'll take the Lambo, any color -- even chartreuse with pink polka dot racing stripes (and matching pink polka dot seats).

It would be nice if I went to pick up my Civic and instead drove off in a Lamborghini. Maybe one day...
