Mitsubishi Lancer Paints/Coats Thread. Suggestions solicited.

Hi guys. I’m painted in a dilemma.

I wanted to do up my Lancer SFXi (Yellow)
It has quite a lot of dents and scratches now
and I deem fit for a repaint.

Since there are a lot of threads on individuals
(@Torqued, @regnex, @pramodkumar, @mikalyil, @Ripper)
re-painting/ re-doing their lancers, I thought
it would be helpful if we could have data and
inputs at one place.

I was very keen on red, butttt, I have a problem
now as many people including me like the OEM Yellow
called Yellow (Aussie) by Mitsubishi, as per this thread:
http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/indian…ar-colour.html

So I asked my folks at home once again and they
thought yellow (aussie) was a taxi color and most of them
had a facination for red.

However since red sedans were running through my mind
all week, I observed the beautiful red shade on all
Hyundai cars. Be it the Santro, Getz, Verna or the
Accent Viva. Their red stands apart from the standard.

I was wondering how would that Hyundai red look on a
Lancer ? I talked to a Mod expert here and he said
it would not look very good. But I’ve seen Vernas and
Accents look pretty good and the bright color stands
out from the other reds, even Swift in a red.

Please help me with this one as I have only one
day before I hand it over to the paint professionals.
I have uploaded some snaps, so that one can get a feel
of how the colors are and look on the Lancer.
I have not masked the plates as these are all over the net.

Kindly advise.

Warm Regards,
Pervez.
