Champ white is overdone. What about gunmetal?

Well I don't have a pic of gunmetal, I'll try to get a pick of my hatch. My hatch is Phantom Gray. I don't see that too often, and it looks really clean. I plan on getting a cf hood and hatch, but I'mma have the whole thing painted stock colors, but I think a cf hood and hatch would look clean on it without paint.

I would say go with a dark hunter kinda green. I think that would keep it clean looking even with the carbon fiber.

I agree. That's why we need to stop suggesting common colors. I say if you see it, like it, then spray it. Trying to suggest what is not commonly seen is my intentions.
