Well, what color do you like? I'd probably stick with the original NBP.....but Milano Red or Satin Silver Metallic would look noice too

Having owned NHBP, I would go with another color. It looks great, but as the owner you will notice every scratch, swirl, etc. They are just impossible. Since you are multi-colored, door jams etc really isn't an issue.

MR may be one of my favorites if you want to stick with the OEM color catalog. Its your call man. Do what YOU want.

Keep it black, Nighthawk is sick when its clean and compare to other blacks, it shows a lot less scratches/swirls/dirt because of all the pearl.

NH-546M---Kaiser Silver Metalic

Y-52P--- NSX Spa Yellow ( Has pearl in it. real nice )

YR-514P---Imola Orange

R-81---Milano Red


Those are some off the top of my head. House of kolors have some really nice colors but your going to have to go to a body shop that has their catalog to see what they got.

I've always wanted to see a quality flat black paint job on a dc2. Also, I think the Dodge Charger sublime green would look fantastic!!!

I'd keep it Black man....no matter which black that may be. Are you getting door jams, etc painted or just the exterior?

I know... how about CW


I would stick with the oem color if I were going to leave it a street car.

If you are going to track it and thats it then do something crazy bright like the Charger green.
