Gonna do a paintjob on my old '06 Compe until my new frame arrives...just don't know what color! I like the sky blue on WTP's frame, its sick :D! I might do a fade from White to Sea Green to a Sky Blue, it will take about a month, I got my new airbrush kit to replace my old one. So what are your suggestions? I would say to look at the geometry of the frame before putting something crazy...

Something like these colors. In order it will be: White-Sea Green-Sky Blue (I know its a ****ty picture, I've seen this car in a game and it made me want to paint my frame just like it)

After one of the best Jawbreaker songs, of course.

That would be sooo sweet. Isn't that going to be your paint scheme?

I like the color purple quite a bit, and even owned a purple BMX.

There's nothing wrong with a purple bike or purple parts.

Do you guys use spray paint?

Yes. It's cheaper then car paint and powder coat.

But it's real hard to get it to look like car paint or powdercoat.

after clear coat it can look almost as good.
