Default It IS red.

So after spraying my guinea bumper with every color I liked. I chose my last and most unlikely choice. I'm painting her RED. I sprayed the bumper and just loved the color for whatever reason.

It's not a stock red, it's just a bright *** solid red.

If I ever get this digicam to work again, I'll take some pics.

I don't see to many red b5's around me, I guess it's kind of different...not that it matters, I just like the color.

Yes, I am painting it myself. I've painted a few cars and have the right materials and tools.

Red is the most expensive color for some reason and one of the hardest colors to spray.

I was so against red until I sprayed that bumper. I actually wasn't even going to get a red sampler, it was my on the bottom of the list.

you will be happy with red, i had a red b5 for about 8 months and feel in love with the color, even though it was probably one of my last choices right above white and pearl

Seriously, go buy yourself a spray gun (gravity feed, stay far far away from pressure feed) and compressor and practice. It's not that hard to master basic painting. I'm defenitly not an expert and I'm defenitly not an artist. It all about the mix, gun, tip, and pressure.

Even the first car I painted didn't turn out terrible, I got a little bit of the "orange peel" on the rear bumper and some minor runs because I just eyed the paint mix and was really just learning how to use the gun. I also had a habit of not testing the dpra pattern before aiming it at the car.
