wow if i was painting my car and saw all those options... I would not be able to decide in a hundred years. so many of them look cool!

(lol sorry for the uselessness of my post)

[wynnEZ]

I know im having a hard time deciding, it really sucks. Ive always liked white and black metallic and the burnt orange.

I am voting for the Arctic White, only because that is one of the colors I am considering for mine. I am also leaning towards a flat black paint job on my car. Once you paint it post up some pics.

Just make sure if you pick something, that if you get a damage body piece, you can match it easily.

That's the only thing you should remember about painting the car.

Or just get enough paint, if you damage a body panel you can paint it over!

i would paint it grand prix white the s2000 white.

It comes with a gallon of paint so I have more than enough. Thanks for the input everyone.

Aqua Pearl Metallic!

very nice!

wait... is this going on a car with a stock body?

If so, nevermind, just go with black

[wynnEZ]

Nope their will be aero, just not sure what I really want though, something aggressive. I really do like the Orgin line.

[BrianHarte]

well, you said it will be a MOSTLY track car, right?

If you are taking the car to the track, you probably want to get noticed. If you put a kit on the car you probably want to get noticed.

go for a BRIGHT unique color.

WHITE isn't going to cut it. Pictures of white cars are boooriiing.

bright color - lots of media for you.

I have an opinion...and I'm not keeping it to myself lol.

Choosing you paint is your choice however here are my opinions on it... -If you go white, go pearl white with a black top (car pearl white with black pillars, roof, etc)

-Or I like Gunmetal with black wheels and red calipers

-I love blue (just not baby blue that is a f** color) I really like the blue on BH's old s14 (I think it was Toyota Racing Blue with some goodies added in)

-Red and black two-tone is nice when done right.

-Champange...you just can't go wrong if it's a coupe

These are typically my favorites but in the end it's your decision on what color you do. Also Nice wheels that match the paint.

emerald green ftw!!!!!!

Yes you are so right. Thanks

flat black son, looks amazing. Check my build thread from my sig.

[BrianHarte]

Flat black might the the worst idea ever....

[kornmanz]

lol. I like the way it looks.

Fine then, go jet black. Anything in black = sex

[wynnEZ]

Im going to agree with Brian here, flat black really isnt my thing. I need something clean and flashy

[fastkid400]

Some good ideas here, but Teal Green gets my vote. It would look sick, even with your Rota's that you have now.

[gregfarz78]

Go with the white its pretty easy to match if a body panel gets damaged.

[BrianHarte]

White = Nobody wants to shoot photos of it because it is BLAND.

[White Comet]

if your trying for something flashy white isnt for you, but i love my clean white fc. its so pure and flawless looking

[wynnEZ]

As of now Im really set on these 2 colors but still not sure which one. Ive always had a thing for burnt orange cars and I really like the teal with white interior would be sick.

[Ghast]

i have always seen white as being the color of elites. But you are right that is for a Daily driver or just a car you may want to restore.

BH has a very big point when he says if you want to get noticed in a media kinda way. Just go crazy with it. Whatever color u want find a way to make it stand out big time if you are going to be on the track.

put a bunch of colors in a hat. really wild colors. pick out 2. make one color the car color and the other color the wheel color! Don't redraw and don't look back. That's my 2 pennies
