We have a pretty program that I like to call Photoshop, it will allow me to make your car plaid if I so choose. Post a pic, I will manipulate that image.

Ahaha, same with mine. I have to find motivation to complete the odds and ends. Paint will be hear next week from Wa.

Cortez Blue Pearl and BaySide Blue Metallic are nice colors. Are you trying to stay with a dark color?
 
if you are really going for show, do away with black, black doesn't grab attention, do a brighter color, I did yellow, you don't need to stick out as much as me....but look at Orange, Middle Green, a Blue-Green Pearl is tight, my boy with a Neon has it...also if going for show maybe consider metal flake...it's pretty cheap...If you need any help, just hit me up on AIM
 
does the JDM company "Bride" own that Eclipse? hmmm...that's a nice idea and not TOO expensive...you could also do somethin of the same but instead of white to black maybe green to blue or the opposite? or red to yellow or orange to black, I dunno, but that would attract attention. Peace,

Skyline Blue, WRX Blue, 350Z Blue, those are all very very nice
 
Or you can get a little more bling to it and put a silver pearl base, paint the back black pearl and fade it towards the front. Then paint kandy blue over the silver and black. So now you have a lot of depth from the Kandy for people looking up close, and from the distance you have the sudden flip flops in colors. Just a thought.
 
hook it up with a blue dark or lighter. it would look pimp at a show and just for yourself. i would do a black just because black is just amazing looking on cars. do somthing u enjoy not to win shows. :)
 
not too be offensive at all...but your car really reminds me of the Tic Tac green...i forgot what kinda gum it is but it comes in little rectangles and your car reminds me of that a lot
 
if you want a head turner go with yellow :cool:
i know a guy with a yellow 1g with a black midwing with a black stripe coming down from the spoiler to a point, with limo windows, and drift front bumper. looks AWSOME. i dont have pics but maybe ill get some. im doin the same with my car, but with a metallic blue, instead of yellow. :p
