A guy I know who drifts a 180 in the udc has that colour scheme.

[PeterT]

theres a guy on here with an orange 180 like that with carbon bonnet.

[johnbro]

So much for trying to be original.:rolleyes:
I wanted a colour that isn't too common for 180's like black,blue,red or white.

I think I'm going to go with it anyway
It's just for a few practice days ATM
I think it looks good maybe a bit dated but cool all the same

Going to have c-west front bumper and skirts
25mm vented front wings
50mm rear overfenders
bonnet vent
no wings maybe a small lip but nothing more for now.
going to stick with a standard back bumper while I'm learning:D

I want some nice dishes but cant afford them so I have a set of wheels going metallic black

will need some spacers too:mad:
it's all money

gary g on here has his one done that colour.

Been there done that:D

I knew this was a bad idea:rolleyes:
The way things a going everyone on this site will be painting their car olive green:D

Does anyone have plans on going that colour green like the spirant 180?????

I'm even considering it now

[jdmjimmy]

orange is cool once its pulled off right like above and I was strongly thinkin of doin the 15 orange with black roof but be carefull it doesnt end up like this less the dinges of course

Yeah I was afraid that my car might end up looking something like that:eek:
I think orange might suit my car but I'm not sure,
I suppose I'll have to wait until I get the kit on the car and get it primed I'll have a better Idea then:)
I'm debating that urban green colour of that spirant 180

its the best result of using that colour combo i've seen yet in my opinion.
seen loads doing the matt green and matt black but very few going for the glossy olive green and glossy black.

I was all set to go matt black then i got turned off matt colours
Realistically they only look good when they leave the paintshop and it's downhill from there.

I like that colour is it BMW A04 UNI urban green

It doesn't look like it in that pic
Maybe Oilivine green BMW 349

the urban green bmw looks far too green. the spirant cxar looks alot less green and more grey then that. more a kahki colour then olive

EDIT:
Quick google for ya and came up with this, the colour isnt a BMW colour,
it's actually an OEM nissan colour from a nissan x trail (another good reason to choose it)

it's called Ash Khaki k47

and i believe this is supposed to be the colour mixing chart to make it

Nice find there lad was looking for a code for that before
My only worry is that a lot of other guys use it too would make it less original:p

I think the orange is out the window now for sure
It is a bit fast and furious i suppose :eek:

[Scamper]

i have been contemplating the spirant colour for ages now, or something similar, it is a nice colour, but the car would want to be epic to start with, to pull it off, wheels, kit etc...

[Alan B.]

the spirant car is the only car i've seen that colour.

but it is a well known car now i geuss so i see you're point.
however, khaki is common but orange isnt????? PMSL


sorry, couldnt help myself.

i agree with scamper too, it is one of those colours that would only work on a "finished" car.
one that has everything else spot on.
