Red is the number 1 cop magnet. here in texas cops will follow a red sport compact for 10-15 miles just TRYING to catch them doing something...

White would be cool, very cool. BTW, what color are your rims?

You could go with jet black, but IMO black is getting a little played out by now.

Lexus has a nice gunmetal color they use on the IS300, you can see it on their website.

Also the Silverstone Metallic used on the S2000 looks awesome! I'm considdering this color for my civic. You can see this color at http://www.honda2000.com then click on the S2000.

As long as you don't have those ghey altezza lights, paint it any color you'd like. Championship White would look damn good.

If you do have those ghey lights, just drive your car off of a cliff.
