    Arrow Wanna get my car repainted...

    Hey, I have been thinking about getting my car repainted, but I don't think that I want it to be white like it is now. And a buddy of mine works at a body shop that will do all the body work and painting for pretty cheap. The paint that I have on it now is really dull, even with wax, and the hood doesn't have the same white, cause I spraypainted it so it wouldn't be blue. Anyways, whats a nice color for a 3G. I kinda want to do it red, Ive never had a red car. But maybe black, or an SI blue. But I also want it to be a color that no one really has. Ahh, I gotta save up money anyways so I have plenty of thime to think. What do you guys think?

    my personal favorite is the dark navy blue you find on early 90s pontaic sunbirds. with a nice high gloss finish its really nice. A 5.0 mustang down my road just got that blue and its REALLY nice

    I agree with Mr. Pimp, a nice dark metallic navy blue is very very nice. Of course my personal favorite is black, then maybe white. I also like silver, and that pewter on the recent Firebirds/Trans Am's, and the slightly darker pewter color on the new Mustangs.

    How about Brittney Blue from the SE-i? LOL That was a pretty sweet color too. Or Spa Yellow from the S2000!

    I think the dark graphite grey looks badass if the rest of the car is done right but not with maroon interior I don't think so, go with a good white, it'll be cheaper to paint the car and a GOOD white paint job will turn as many heads as any other color, with some chrome rims or something
