FPB looks really nice, I don't see why you should change the color.

plus its an 00 so the paint should still be good. and if your painting it for ***** and giggles then paint it a color YOU relaly like or a color that's different (if that's the look your going for).

Eddie

Its all YOUR choice

yeah if your paint is still good, just leave it and spend money on something else maybe something for your motor or suspension.

All the silvers and grey's are to trendy right now. I'd go with that ne BMW M-3 color dont know what its called but its like a blueish/ aqua color that would look sick and be very different.

I would go with the TT gunmetal (i think it's gunmetal). But in your case i would just leave it the STOCK color, until it got keyed or chipped or something terrible like that.
