black is a great color. but if u dont keep it clean it will show. also u have to worry about swirl marks. when i had my 98 gst, i bought silver b/c i was lazy and i knew that it didnt show the dirt as much ;)

but whatever u pick, post some pics when ur done :thumb:
 
Don't know what you like, I like to be different. from the side molding up is intense blue from Dodge, and the lower rockers are frost silver from Mercury

But to each is own
 
My 1g talon is getting painted a dark oargeish red, with the back top. Should I keep the wing black or paint it, or get an eclipse wing and paint that?? What would you do?? Tthere is a pic of a white talon with the wing painted and that was pretty sharp.
 
If you go black paint the roof, wing, and pillars. How about World Rally Blue from a WRX with the balck top, but if it looks old you may have to repaitn the black top so it will look good with the new paint.
 
This is a pic of my favorite 1G. GSX90. If your car is the same color as his, I would keep it the same. Plus it would cost more to change the color.

I think the anniversary red on the new corvettes is SWEET! It's probably on their website I would imagine. I am thinking of doing mine black as well this summer. Undecided at this point though.
 
ok guys. im down to the last few weeks of my project, and im still deciding what color to go with. my car is black now, and since im doing all the body work, i really dont know if i want to take on the work of changing the color. although black is a bi*** to take car of when you live where i live, its still beutiful when clean. ive thought about yellow, but thats too bright. then i thought about emerald green, but its just not me. then i had decided to go with a color called amber fire (sample below) which i think would really cool with my body kit and all. i want your input on this.

My input is stay with black...it is the best looking color in my opinion...that's what I'm getting my car done in when I get my paint job.
