paint (color)
Has anyone seen one of our cars painted?
Black with canary rally stripes
Or
Black with silver rally stripes
These are my two choices I would like to see to make up my mind.

i had a post about this long *** time ago just before i was going to paint. I wanted stripes too but didnt know how they would look so i had few guys photochop me some stuff...ill see if i can find it in the archives..
ok heres some ideas they gave me...but i just decided to go all black....
2 stripes
2 tone, which is really a nice look for it i must say...

id say the 2 tone, but if ya want stripes id go with the black with silver/charcoal stripes. the canary will stand out far too much on our cars and detract from your cars features, everyone will just stare at the stripes and say" thats too loud"

the darker gray on the second pix doesnt suit the cars current paint well, try another tone of gray, it may improve the look, but the top 2 are better, hey ice, can i get you to take a pic of my car and make the "power bulge" charcoal? wanna see how it looks, also the hatch could be charcoal on mine, along with the top of the wing.
