FC paint choice

What color should i paint my FC right now its an S4 chasis thats black with 2 red S5 gtu doors, and a white turbo II hood. the colors i am thinking of is Midnight blue, pearl black, or hunter green. if anyone has pics of these colors on FC's or has any good opinions those would be greatly appreicated.

black. jus pick the black u like the best. i feel like color changes never turn out right unless the owner spends 10grand. the only reason to do not do black, is that it doesnt photograph well if u are trying to get in a mag. most mags reject black cars at a high rate. goodluck.

Here ya go.
This is a Midnight Metallic Blue.
Looks pretty nice, esp. at dark, its way sexier looking.

The FC was born to wear black. But it looks good in any color. Pick the color *YOU* like best.

Just not baby poop green, for the love of god. I have one running around town that color, and it makes me want to vomit.

Paint is only a question of taste but I'm thinking of painting mine dark grey and add some red racing seats for contrast.

im sorry, but if you have to ask someone what color car YOU should paint YOUR car......

no more blue cars! everyone and their grandma's dog are painting their cars blue and getting gold or black wheels (im a hipocrit...). i blame the Subies!
