Hi guys,
I've been wanting to paint my car but I'm really stuck on which color to paint it.
I was originally thinking about black and smoking the headlights and tail lights and getting black saleen rims. But it seems a lot of people have already done that.
I still want the black saleens and smoked headlights and tails,
I'm now thinking a charcoal gray, black, or some sort of blue.
Also, pictures would be a great help!
Thank you in advance!
Matt

blue, i love the dark blue that i painted my car, i got the best of both worlds with mine. at night people think that its black but during the day you can definitely see the blue in it and it changes a little bit with the light

I really like the metallic baby blue colors. Sounds kinda gay, but I love a sissy looking color with real attitude behind it.

Definately don't do black or any other color where you could just buy a new cobra. The price of a color change is pretty high, Just to paint my car the same color with no door jams etc, is 2,600. Now this is assuming your not doing the paint and or prep work yourself. That being said...Mineral gray or Mystic

black is a horrible color..very hard to maintain and swirl marks are very noticable. I really like red or white

original will give you the best results unless you plan on stripping it down to the bare shell and painting everything... If your car was originally red and you paint it a darker color every single flaw such as door hinges, hard to reach engine spots, etc. will pop out like a spray painted civic :)
