So you want are input on these 3 colors? Out of these 3 I would pick White, 2nd choice would be Black. Yellow is getting old. For my EF9 its gonna be Olive green

i had a blue, most recent one was red now its a black one that is my shell, to tell you guys all the truth i can't even decide its driven me crazy, the yellow ef9 is nice but it looks pretty light of a m3 yellow tryin to look for more of that itr yellow, also just thought about sliver on black(moldings rims etc but yeah pretty much on all of the other colors that i wanted)
