Re: What Color Paint?

Black is played out IMO, go with a custom mix or get some decals to go with the black.

If you really want to stand out:




IN all seriousness, I'd look into something different. Kinda like RoadRash did with his wheels.

Re: What Color Paint?

If you willing to spend $, go with the two sided (One side *color othen side *color) paint job. Someone recently posted theirs but the two colors didnt work well.

And you want BLACK go with it. As long as you dont rattle can the whole damn thing

Re: What Color Paint?

hmmm. i was thinking about it earlier and was thinking about maybe a white, red, and black scheme but i have no idea of how that will turn out. is there some software or something that i can "try out" different colors and see how they look...?
