Do somethin different. Everyone likes white but somethin different will make your car unique.

I think I'm going to go with black when I paint my car (that I don't have yet)

I think the only reason white looks so good is because the people who own the black ones have no style...Except that last one posted with the leaves on the ground. That one looks killer!

If I were going to paint my car a different color, it would have to be a really dark blue. Black is cool, but a little plain and black is probably the second most popular color next to white.

This isn't my car, but it's very close to the color I'm going to paint it.
But I understand that orange isn't for everyone.

I am kinda leaning towards either arctic silver or the saphire blue metallic. Which one you guys think looks better. I think it would be cool to do something in between those two colors.

Very nice work. I guess you could start out with 2500 grit after the paint has a few months to fully harden and see how it goes. There was an online clinic by Maguires products which shows you the entire color sanding and subsequent buffing process in detail.

Here's mine, repainted black



The bad news is that it got sideswiped last month. Good news is that it's going to be fixed.

You have to copy and paste geocities links -- they don't work when you just click on them.

Im a fan or white, but my car has a red interior so I decided it wasnt going to work with it.
Instead I got it painted a light silver/grey color, similar to sakiburners pic, but not quite as nice...
Ill post a pic as soon as I get my car back (they fucked up the door so I had to take it back)
