What color to paint?

[junior1023]

Thinking of getting this painted in the next few weeks. Only question is what color?

NOTE: The door jams and engine bay will NOT be painted as well............

Its between White, Red, Black and Silver again....

Has carbon hood and carbon spoiler, so I dont know if black would look wierd?

silver if you're not going to paint jams and bay

black if you do (i know you said you weren't though)

have you thought about lowering your car?

silver if you're not going to paint jams and bay

black if you do (i know you said you weren't though)

have you thought about lowering your car?

Yea, Im actually doing that soon as well. I live in CO and we have some BAD roads so it's not gonna be slammed. Was thinking right around 2"-2.5" drop

I dont think it would be that hard to to the jams and bay myself, would it?

Coilovers would be best then, at least I think they would be so you could adjust them if you're going to be around some roads that are worse than others. You'll just have to go angled onto some roads.

As far as the jams and bay, you'd have to pull the engine out while you did it but the painting itself wouldn't be too hard as long as you have somewhere to do it without getting overspray on anything important or whatever.

If your keeping the CF hood and spoiler, go with a light color. Black w/CF looks stupid IMO. Do either EPB blue, or a nice red. Not Milano tho. Do a darker red, almost burgandy. That'll look nice as a 4 door. Hey, if you drive out to NY for a week, Ill paint it for ya. Alls you gotta do is supply beer, and painting supplies.

id say paint the wheels black too..it would look good. but anywho...we should meet up so i can see this thing in person!

I don't see what's wrong with the paint, save your money for a drop.

black looks tight with CF, but paint the wells and bay though.

drop it down, lose to spoiler and repaint it the exact same color and pay to have any dents, deep scratches and/or rust removed too, dont be cheap, paint is not something you want to do more than once, so do it right the 1st time
