Bronze/copper/gold-ish kind of mix looks really good if you get just the right tint to it.
Or, jet black. 8)
Team Fast & Furious is looking for a neon-green & decaled car.

Paint it Yellow or baby blue. Tony and Angelo from Timmy’s in Woodbridge will envy you. :lol:
… Can’t go wrong with a nice black or a nice blue. Mine is a 2 stage paint job. It’s 300zx red with a touch of orange pearl, it wasn’t my choice, but it looks good because it looks like bright red in the night and in the day it looks like red and at different angles you can see the orange coming through. The only crapy thing about custom paint jobs is that you can’t get touch up paint and when I needed to paint my skirt package they went through hell trying to colour match my car with the skirts but in the end it came out realy good. … It all comes down to how much you are willing to $pend.

champain (champagne) is obsolete, but it does fit the time period of the car.
what is the colour of your car now?
dont change it too much, it costs so much money because you “should” be painting everything so that you cant find spots with the original colour.
if you have a black car then get a different black, or a dark gunmetal.
if you have a white car then stay white-ish…
unless you are stripping the whole car down to nothing and painting everything i dont recommend drastic colour changes

the right kinda red (metallic, etc) will look hot. the faded s13 patchy red is a nono. the d1 garage s13.5 is hot.
