Anyone ever change the color of their montego blue RX7 ? I want to paint mine, but I dont want the engine bay to look like ****.... I'm not going to take the motor out just to paint it.



has anyone successfully done this? if so what color ?

Ask Dave (FD3BOOST) all about it. He's the man.

j9fd3s 12-08-2002 11:52 AM

if you keep it a shade of blue it wont look too bad

Fd3BOOST 12-08-2002 12:02 PM

Yea we spoke on AIM about it.

I think Monetgo is the worst color for the Fd.

I would gladly advise anyone interested in changing it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I did a color change on the interior to black it looks good

racerguy180 12-08-2002 09:00 PM

i love my MB FD, i'm goin to have my streetbike painted montego blue.



it looks better with gunmetal or black rims and black interior

Fd3BOOST 12-08-2002 11:02 PM

I had two and I hated it.

I should pin this just to see waht people think of Montego blue.

It's the only ~iffy color.

vosko 12-09-2002 01:30 AM

i hate MBM, my favorites are black, silver, white, cym https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

9BASE3 12-09-2002 10:13 AM

I think the VR is a good color for a FD. Just too bad they are so common. And many of them look like ass. I think Red is a great color for any exotic sports car.





But, yeah, The others are badass too. I even like the MB. And don't mind the Tan interior. Its good looking if its CLEAN.

rotorbrain 12-10-2002 04:18 PM

mine is mbm and i love it. i have a base with black cloth interior. . . i like that a whole lot better than the leather interior. . . unless its r1 or r2 interior. i like the black and mbm colors personally. a clean mbm looks gorgeous at night especially with black interior.

Part of me wishes I had a black interior... part of me likes the Tan..

Fd3BOOST 12-10-2002 08:07 PM

I would like black interior, but I have really clean tan interior. Also my seats still look almost brand new so I can't complain.



Anybody have that burgandy red interior?

djgiantrobot 12-10-2002 08:27 PM

my old roomate has a silver 94 touring with red interior and another guy i went to college with has a silver 93 touring with red interior. I'm not a fan, but the 94 red interior is alot better than the 93.

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...iss-monkey.gif on you guys that don't like MBM. Mine's MBM with black leather and I get comments all the time on how much people like the color. Sounds like a little jelousy to me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



Well...I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion. Mine is that MBM with black is the best, followed by CYM with black, then silver with black or red. I think the tan interior looks like **** unless it's in a black car, then it's not too bad. Did we even have the tan option in Canada? I've never seen it.

Montego sucks ass anyway way you look at it, black or tan.



I had both.

CanadianRex 12-13-2002 05:45 PM

Like I said - any assholes entitled to an opinion....LOL, jk Fd3BOOST (Well, maybe you are an ******* but I don't know that for sure) https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Fd3BOOST 12-14-2002 03:55 PM

Hey that's not nice https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I am an owner of two Montegos.



I am entitled not to like that color.

Hey I'm happy for you if you like it.

Does that make you an *******?

Glad to see you have a sense of humour :bigok:

Sinful7 12-16-2002 01:25 PM

I like MBM, except at night, when it's cloudy, when it's too sunny, high noon...



Other than that, I love it! and mine's MBM!



I do, however, get compliments on it. Even my buddy's dad likes my MBM more than his son's VR!

Silver Ninety Three 12-16-2002 10:42 PM

MBM looks good in the shade when it is clean and well kept. I used to have one. I hated how it showed every spec of dirt and swirl mark. In the sunlight it looks too green. I saw an mbm fd that had some purple added to the paint, and it looked nice. Here is a pic. Its hard to tell but in the sunlight it had a nice deep color to it, unlike the stock mbm that turns green. They should have named it montego green :smirk:
