    Just go with whatever color you want. IMO Stock color is the way to go but if your going to go all out then definatly go with another color.

    That car needs it's bumpers changed out to the painted white ones. Black textured bumpers are the cheapest of the cheap options. Why would you want to purposely make a car look as cheap as possible??

    Re: serious question bout paint

    i, personally, would not recommend black at all. i was thinking about painting my car black, but with all the body work, its going to show some no matter how well you go over it. might not be that noticeable, but later on you'll start getting swirl marks and any dings that occur will be more noticeable than on other colors. i would go with a grey of any shade. that would look great, and not show dirt as much. but i dunno. i'm probably going to go with the original gold color my 3gee came in to repaint it just for ease of painting. i plan to do mine sometime before summer comes around again.
