Default stay madori green or paint.......

Im doing the 99 front end conversion and I thinking about changing the color of the car but the greens kinda pimp. I haven't seen many green eks before,what do you all think? Also what kinda cf hood is good everyone seems to be unhappy with so many of them, I want to spend about 400.00 or so for a clean hood and 250.00 for a front chin in cf.

Keep it green. It will be too expensive to have the car's color changed properly.
That's money you could be spending on performance parts.

I say stay midori green that's a nice color, plus remember there's no better paint job than stock paint if it's still in good condition. I would recomend:
1.) Color match the front end.
2.) Wet sand the rest of the body and polish it to bring the old color back to life if it's kind of dull, (I recomend this be done by someone who knows how to wet sand.)
3.) Nice lip and be done with it.

just my .02
good luck
