I have had a couple of people request pics of my car so here goes.
My EA is painted in a custom Pink peal paint with a custom magenta pearl blended in around the bottom of the car. The rear bumper has been custom made by the love of my life, he also painted my car for me. He is yet to finish the front bumper, side skirts and a rear wing, but I think he is waiting for me to decide what I want (u know how it is girls, just can't decide what I want). My partner also painted the dragways for me using the magenta from the bottom of car and polished the centres. At the mo he is concentrating on organising the 351C etc to go in. She is far from finished but she is work in progress. The photo dosen't do the colour justice but I am doing this on my laptop and don't have a programe on here to adjust the pic. Anyone else out there who has an E series in a completely different colour from norm colour plz post pics. |

I will be honest tho, alot have said they would never drive a pink car. @ the end of the day, I wanted something that would standout, and boy does it stand out & get the looks!! |

yeah as everyone else aid some chromies would set it off..it looks a bit underdone like that.
Maybe go down to supercrap and get some chrome hub cabs for now? Or get some black stockies. has anyone driven through geelong recently? There is a car yard on the left as you enter near the geelong North train Station that has a pink EA/EB (I think EB has its got a V8 sign on it...and duelk fuel). Its a pearl pink and actually looks really good. And had me thinking twice, its not a full on pink, has a purple tinge through it.

10 points for originality, -98075798074598798759879879807 points for how it looks.
Just my opinion, your car, if you love it, then that's all that matters. |

I'm not too fond of the magenta bottom or the wheels. But if it was dumped over some nice 18s it'd look like a show car! Any plans to paint the door handles to match?
