Most will say wrong section, but oh well. What color would you prefer would be a good start. It is YOUR car afterall.

I am kinda partial to black. You should make this a poll.

I personally prefer a very bright blue like a candy blue but that's just me i'll tell ya what everyone else is gonna say. this is going to be your car not ours so paint it whatever color you feel makes your car looks good

I believe in what Henry Ford said: You can have any color, so long as it's black.

I've always been partial to really dark grays too. Seems like a few new cars are available in dark enough shades that I like how they look in gray.
