Naked Corollas are sexy. Haha.

 

I plan to paint mine Camaro Yellow with the black stripes. In other words, Bumble Bee from The Transformers.

 

Keep up the good work and all.

 

Also how much is it costing you getting the seats and door cards re-upholstered?

I found using a block+paper a hell of a lot more efficient, and not to mention quicker. Just me though..

The Ford Focus Orange is called Electric Orange. Ford Tango Orange is is a colour they had in the 70's and is the colour -miller- used om his KE35.

 

hmm... maybe i am mistaken but i did go on the website and they did say it was called tango orange.

i'll have to follow that up. thanks

Yeah, plus -Miller_'s KE35 was labled as Ford Tango orange was years before the XR5 Focus came out.

 

I only know cause I plan on painting my KE55s the XR5 orange and I've sussed out the same already.

i work at a painting factory and the ford xr5 electric orange is apparently

quite hard to get because it is an import colour.

the paint companies in australia don't make it as an oem colour.

the code for it if you interested is 2015-1 you'll need this if your going to get some made up!

i'll be getting a quote on price on monday.. will let you know what trade price is if you like?

OOPS! posted on boyfriends account again. sorry.

Ok i got that price on the xr5 orange!

its called electric orange.

you need a special basecoat and then the colour!

so oem paint! exactly what they use on the cars.

$540 for the basecoat - 4 litres

and $580 for the colour- 4litres

expensive because they are import cars.

better off picking a coulour off an australian delivered car.

holden paint is easy to get and pretty cheap

also falcoon colours mitsti etc.
