I'm doing a total restoration on my zilla. any suggestions for colurs for the frame, engine ETC.

 

get orange plastics with a dark blue frame and chrome the motor

 

make everythimg black that would match with anything

 

I was thinking metallic green but a chromed motor that would be sweet!

 

i just painted the plastics on my LT250, a pearl orange, kinda copper color, with blue flakes in the clear. painted hood jet black, this winter i am going to paint frame black, will post pics soon.

 

Metallic green frame or plastics? I like things that are original, different than what other people have. That way it stands out. Not weird though, lol.

 

Yeah i like the metallic green idea. Can you paint plastics with a normal spray gun. Is it hard to get paints for the plastics. Or what kind of paint do you use.

 

I work at a body shop, I used regular automotive paint on my plastics, first i sprayed the plastics with adhesion promoter, then some sealer, then the paint and lastly the clear. there is this additive you add to the paint to make it flexible, perfect for plastics!

 

I like the classic yellow/blue for zillas. The green and orange scheme sounds great.

 

maybe do a complete opposite of a reg zilla. like a yellow hook and blue everything else? and for the frame make it yellow and a chrome motor
