Best Pearlescent Combinations?

[Jimrod]

 

 

Midnight purple ultra blue pearl

Best looking Adder I've seen all week!

 

 

Yeah, very classy!

 

I've finally settled on matte grey with Ice White pearl on mine for a subtle look.

My Carbo has a wine red base with a bright (hot?) pink pearlescent. Gives a bit more of a purple tint to the wine red. Lovely.

Most of my cars have some kind of pearlescence to them, as it appeals to me.

My personal favorite combinations are the Midnight Blue with Lime Green Pearl, as I applied to this Baller.



The Wine Red with Hot Pink Pearl of this Sandking:



The basic Black with Yellow Pearl for my Boston Bruins Bati:



And for a blistery, fire look, there's the Lava Red with Bright Orange Pearl of my Blista Compact:



Of course, if you're thinking Chrome, then a Lime Green Pearl can't hurt, though I traded this color in for the Blister Blista, above.




Hope this was helpful! Best of luck!

How do you do matte paint with pearl??

 

I can figure it out but I dont want to waste the cash if someone can just tell me.

ShadeShow, Here's a walk through,

.

1. Respray a primary color

2. Exit respray and go to wheels

3. Buy either custom or stock tires (which ever you don't already own)

4. Go back to respray and the pearlescent option should now be available.

It's that simple.

 

Fish, I never would have guessed that Baller had a Midnight Blue base coat. That's really sharp looking. I may have to respray my Entity, again.

Grace Red metallic with Pfister Pink pearlescent looks awesome, ends up like a nice metallic crimson colour.

 

Bright Green with Dew Yellow looks good too.

Red & yellow

Red,green, or blue & with black

Light with darker shade of same color

Cheaper way is -

 

Buy base paint you want (matte, chrome etc), click on "Metallic" (important step missed above), back out and go to licence plate selection, buy one you don't have, go back into paint and choose your pearlescent finish. done. (don't forget to buy the plate you want again).

Usually anything with white pearlescent to make it look shinier (Except if you already painted your car white of course because it won't make any difference)

 

But different pearlescent made the glossiness bigger in the garage. I mean I never compared two white cars with different pearlescent outside, side by side but it seems some makes it shinier

[Pagan Lowrider]

im quite fond of the dark blue(or maybe its midnight blue)classic,then do the pearl glitch and add one of the yellows...comes out very nice gold/green

Giantsgiants has done great colours on his cars.

 

My favourite colour though is brushed black steel with an ice white pearlescent, it gives the car a platinum look.

Matte Black and Ultra Blue Pearlescent gives your car an awesome blue and black color changing effect.

Old picture of my Adder, but it's still the same Black with Dark Red Pearlescent.

[JRC99]

Beechwood Brown + Sunrise Orange pearl looks nice.

[Nitty Don]

Black Base with Lime Pearl

 

Lime Base with Racing Yellow Pearl

 

You guessed I like Lime Cars !!!

[enjoithepain]

You can get a really nice blue if you use dark blue with blue pearlescent. I don't have any pictures atm but IMO it looks really nice.

[Black Rabbit]

Graphite with Ice White Pearl on both

That's the same combo i have on my Jester, i went for the classic rather than matte version for my Entity

To the keen eye it does. If you do one white with the other white as pearlescent it gives it a nice pearl shine to it. I did it with my alpha. It makes the white pop a little more. Beautiful

So, I was playing around with some pearlescent paint on my new Carbonizzare, and created this:

 

 

 

 

I'm still not entirely certain that I really like it, but it's quite different, that's for sure. I kinda like how under the garage lights it looks kinda golden or olive...but outside it looks like a velvety chocolate tone.

This was created by using the Wine Red metallic and either Race Yellow or Dew Yellow pearlescent (can't remember)

I get ideas from here i still add my own touch them. Im not affiliated with them they just have nice ass paintjobs on there.

Interesting site, however it looks like a lot of those were created with some sort of colour hack (PS3 I'm assuming)?

 

 

The Xbox360 is just as moddable as the PS3, so there's no way to tell.

 

Either way, you can set the crew colour to (almost) any RGB value you want, so you could do any of those without modding anything (other than a simple hack on the web page where you set your crew colour).

My favorite combo has got to be Brushed Black Steel w/ Ice White Pearl (or Frost White for preference.) Gives it a Platinum look. You would have to do the Pearlescent trick to get it, but still.
