#@$! Second thoughts,opinions?
Finally go all my minor bugs worked out and have applied the final primer/sealer. Now I am having second thoughts on going BLACK as originally planned. I need you all's opinions on color choices before I repurchase the black or go with a completely different color. Photochops welcome! Opinions?

I like black...but I can't maintain that color. Your interior will go with anything. Go with what you like. I did see another member's car that was painted a "gunmetal" ...that looked good and it was different.

I am kind of partial to black myself. Someone doctored this pic for me and I think did a great job. I have been thinking of using this as a sig pic.

My second choice, $$ no object would be candy apple red.....both of the above would incorporate a Baldwin-Motion type racing stripe.
Someday.
