Default What color should my DC5-R be?

Hey all, I just got a Fujumi DC5-R model straight from Hong Kong and wanna know what color I should paint it. I built another itr from Fujimi and it looks good. I will post pics when I am done. The box for the model looks like this




Can somebody tell me when can i be a real user instead of a trial user?

Hey where did you get that model and how much did you pay for it?

Oh and by the way, paint it Championship white, thats the best color IMO.

Hey My friend went to Hong Kong for vacation and I told him to pick me up a model. It was 15 dollars American and much cheaper than 30 dollars in online stores. It comes already in white and I might buy a clear glossy spray paint and just use that to make it shiny. I dont think they sell championship white paint, but I think if I just spray the clear paint on, it still would look good. I painted my other ITR yellow, and i wouldn't mind painting this one yellow also. I love that color. So right now its between white and yellow. Thanks for your input.

My other ITR is a DC2-R, not a DC-5. Sorry for confusion.

Yea, make it yellow. I have yet to see a yellow RSX. Or maybe even green, like metallic green or something.. that would be interesting.
