[devilzpassion]

wow, man sum real nyc discussion going on here... very neat n innovative ideas coming in as well...
@STORM...
with all these heads working 4 u, ur bug is gonna rock every1'z sockz!!!
best ov luk for the project dude...

[Storm]

@devilzpassion
thanks, the whole idea is to get everyone on pakwheels involved in the build. Alot of people have alot of really good ideas.

@fazimoto
I'll probably be getting them from the UK, US or UAE if i go for something unusual. or if i go for a classic design i might just get them from here,... all depends how much money is left once i've done the engine & interior.

[Storm]

What i really need are some colour ideas....

[devilzpassion]

i suggest having a single colour on the car ... double tone luks gud, but... (just n opinion!!!)

[ahsanmq]

c this color

[majortan]

happy birthday storm bhai and nice ride lolz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mrphlurt]

hey there! well i personaly dont like the gola ganda cars, no offence to anyone but simple looks better

keep in mind that this color should be the strong blue color of new corolla/coure didnt have the exact shade so that is y i used the available option

[psyb0rg]

how abt something like this:

[Ghuncha]

my little contribution....

[Storm]

@ahsanmq
tat's my first colour choice, i love tangeriene metallic.

@malikG & Psyborg
I can't cut the car, it'd ruine the 1303 beyind repair,... thogh i've played with the idea a few times.

[Storm]

@haywirehiatus, testdriver, mrphlurt, sasifh

thanks for the ideas/ concept, this is more of what i was looking for when i started this thread.

[AbidSiddiqui]

Sameer bhai, aprox. how much this project cost

[Storm]

if i actually do import all the parts i need (and some i wil not need) it'll cost in the range if 3.5 to 4 lacks.

I know it's alot of money, but it'll be worth ii as i'm not ever looking to sell this car after this build.

@ STORM... I WOULD SUGGEST THAT U GO FOR A CUSTOM PAINT JOB instead of having a multi colored car as it shows greater effort and and makes the car look expensive if the paint work is good. colors like purple and greenish the ones which change shade in different lighting conditions, and give a thought to new bettles millinium cup edition's rims, they look really sporty and are 18's so if u can hook those up and consider gun metal grey color( if it is contrasting with the body color) on the rims, that gives a deadly look!! pay good attention to performance pleaseee!! i mean i duno y ppl in pk just go for the looks.. get discs all round and a motor with big grunt!! shud smoke vti any time of the day!! get a custom unit from uk since u r spending so much money anyz!!leather inteior from Dubai, i knw ppl in sharjah they are great with interiors!!

@ storm

Great to know ur not planning to chop up this car!!

@charged

I agree with you as far as the paint job goes. Many colors may look immature n teenagerish if not done right.
Yes and a dics brake conversion would be worth it if you are planning a hot motor. You have to stop when you have to go!! Try CSP and machine 7 here.

 However I dont agree with the interior part. Why go so far as Dubai?? We have great upholstery people locally if you look around.Not the kind of people sitting on footpaths doing cheap work for your mehran! And if you just look around you would be surprised at the material you get locally. Artificial leather, real leather, velvet and what not. You just need good ideas n imagination.

@charged

thanks for the ideas, I'll for sure be doing something crazy with the paint and the rims,.. just not too sure as to what as yet.

As for te interior i'll most likely be getting suede & leather combo and will get hte job done here in islamabad. I have my own upholstry guy.

thanks & Keep the ideas coming.

@ Storm

   Hey why not request timelessfahad to superimpose new colors onto pics of your Bug as he is doing for the Liteace in another post????

   That would give us a good idea of how a particular color looks on your dub.

Regards.

[Storm]

@asad

sounds like a good idea, maybe once he's completely done with the liteace i'll ask him.
