yea … maybe you should pick the colour? not let us pick it or else you’ll get some silly suggestions like pink … unless if you were to choose on your own you’d pick pink aswell ? :S good luck ---

well i knew that there were goona be some crazy stupid ass remarks as always here on SON, but it seems to be that when you plan on doin stuff to your car you get real narrowminded to certain things, so i figured id ask it up and see what people said, just to broaden the horizons, i kinda like the burgandy idea with a nice flake in it. I just dont know if i want to go with the same old black. keep em commin, and if you feel the urge to make a stupid as comment starting with something like “heres a tip” or “flourescent …” then just stay out, thanks to those of you who actually gave it a bit of thought. Also is carbon purple even a colour? my g/f wants her drag car purple because its her favourite colour and that one sounds pretty bad ass for purple. thanks ---

Black, because if your gonna be adding additional aero parts and what not black is an easy colour to use, and most aero crap comes primer black anyway. ---
