HOT LAVA ORANGE!
09/30/06 at 21:32:08

I thought I'd share this wonderful color that I just painted my bike. My friend who's worked at Maaco for 17 years painted it for $150. Excellent work! The color is from the 2005 Scion XB Limited Edition. Of course Maaco had a bible of colors to choose from and this is the one I chose. I wanted something other than black, red, blue or white. Any opinions?

I've always liked the color orange. I grew up in Texas and went to High School in San Antonio where my school colors were burnt orange, blue and white. I'm also a Longhorns fan along with the Tennessee Volunteers. My Dad is a native of Nashville so that's why I follow the Volunteers.

I gave him the parts on a Monday and got them back on Thursday. Not too long! Again this was my friend and he knew how anxious I was to get it back together and running again!

I'm glad you enjoy it.

Great choice of color, there is a Scion in my area that has the same paint and always catches my eye when I see it.

That's cool cuz my husband and I were looking into buying a Scion. I haven't ever seen one that color but when I was looking through Maaco's color book it wasn't until after when I chose the color that I noticed what car it was from. I immediately went home and did a search on the internet for the car so I could get an idea of what my bike would look like. I was happy when I came across this picture. I was pregant during the good riding months and now it's October and time to put the bike away. I'll have to enjoy my bike next year.
