Default What color should i paint my EG?????

Okay, i got this car as a project, did a **** load and a half of work on it, did the body work myself, it turned out like ****, then painted in over with flat orange (using a paint gun).

this time im going to have a professional redo the bodywork for me, and im going to use a base a clear coat setup, i was looking at paint from this site (paintforcars.com)


which color of the acrylic urethane paint look best? im going to sell the car as soon as i get it painted. no-one wants my orange-peel car

http://www.paintforcars.com/ac....html

has anyone used this paint before? any tips on painting the car to avoid what i got this time?

any help is appreciated, please keep negative feedback to yourself. Thank you

this is my car now, except i hit a deer and fucked up the fender, so its primered now, and theres bondo spots on the back, where the bodywork was redone and fixed, clean body now, just needs paint

i was thinking either gunmetal, si blue, or a dark blue

i dont really want it to be a stock color

i saw this hatch that was a really dark royal green color, almost looked black at night, but i dont know if anyone else would buy a car that color.....

If you are going to paint it to sell it. Paint it a neutral color like white or black or gold or gunmetal.
