What Color To Paint My Car? (56k Beware)
Well some of you know that I bought the ricemoblie a year or so back, for those that don't, it was "customized" by the previous owner which included spray painted dodge racing strips, front and rear sticker visors, hood pins, and much much more "customization", I was looking for an old pic but couldn't find one.
Anywho I just got done sanding it down and primering it, and I have to say it looks a million times better with just the primer. Here are some pics to drool over
I like how the car looks with no side moldings
I'm really leaning toward like a Saphire Blue or something....anyother suggestions?

I was just talking to my friend about doing mine. Ive finaled it down to the new acura TSX blue (forget the color name), a nice black or a similar color to the orange mazdaspeed proteges.

I was thinking about the WRX Blue, I'm not really a fan of the warm colors (yellow, orange, red ect) I was really thinking about black too, but its just so damn hot down here in Texas

you'd need a helluvan FC to justify /that/ orange :P
Is sapphire blue the "s4 basemodel blue" that my car is? (except for the hood, you can see the aluminum through the paint on it heh)

Oh i forgot to post my choice of color For blue, id go with the 2000 Civic SI Electronic Blue. Very nice color. Has pearl and metallic in it. Looks awsome in the sun.... Another color Id think about is Charcol gray. With some kinda metallic in it. Dont see any 7's really with that color. I think itd look hot. but thats my 2 cents

wow thanks for all ya'lls opinons, yeah I was getting lazy and left that side moulding on.
I want to paint it white as well, being it would prolly be the cheapest and look alright, but its just so plain.
I also have the erbuni body kit that came with it that I'm sanding primering and repairing, I'm thinking it will start looking pretty good
edit oo that blue one looks so good, anyone know what kinda blue that is?

DONT paint it black!! a PAIN in the *** to keep clean.... you wash it, 5 min later you see **** everywhere. If your a clean freak and wash your car everyday then do black.... otherwise i really wouldnt consider black.

White is my favorite FC color, it really shows all the little details on the body, like the black plastic around the doorhandles and so on.
