Default Need your opinion of paintjob for my car

I photoshopped a bunch of pics of my car, and I'd like to hear what you would think is best! Tell me what you think, even if you can recognize the crappy photoshop skills I have, especially making it white from purple, it's real shitty but try to not mind the crappy skills just the color. I'm getting my paintjob done this summer, it's going to be a decent price, as I will strip it and remove the motor for the painter.

BLUE


BLACK


BROWN/RED


BLUE/BLACK


WHITE


STOCK PURPLE


Thanks for your input!

Front mount is going to be thinnered away this weekend

As much as I love it it is chipping away too much from road debris. The only solution would be to put some kind of rubberized coating over it, further decreasing it's cooling power, so it's gotta go. Now I need to manage a way to mount it as far back as possible and fit a new bumper that will hide it

Go with Black w/Red Pearl. Maybe mix the red pearl in with the base coat rather than applying it on top. Or mix it in with the base coat n pearl on top also. Oh n lots of clear to make it look like glass.

White looks real clean...i would avoid the EBP type color. So, ANYTHING but EBP,
except that brown/red color. That's fugly IMHO.

I'll be the odd ball here. personally i like the blue/black. something different but still pretty clean. not a color you will see on the road often. i see that blue everywhere, ya it's a cool color but it's too popular.
