What color should I paint my car?
I need help deciding on what color to paint one of my cars.
I have been thinking for a while to use this high silver mettalic from Dimont* (sp)
Its the same color that we sprayed the front of my car 2 years ago just for fun..I was also thinking of using the silver for the whole car with maybe pearl in it or just go with a darker silver/pewter color.. someone help me decide..
I will be running Weld racing wheels when its done.. here some pics to get an idea..
The inside colors are black and silver..

I've been staring at that picture, and I can't figure out which looks better: black or silver. Those two tones go quite well together. Maybe you can figure out some sort of tasteful two-tone paint job using both. I think it would look pretty cool if you had the roof from the crease of the B-pillars up painted black (perhaps the hood black too) with the rest of the car silver. Tint the windows black too...it could look nice.

I like this dark peuter looking color I see on some new Caddilacs,but heres house of colors..

Ohh...I meant the color combo of that silver with the black. I didn't mean keep the color fade, although that style paint was popular back in the day so it is almost a "period" style paint job as it sits.
Pewter colors are beautiful. I absolutely love Aharon's color on his Cobra (I think it is mineral grey).

Im going to be running Welds on it and they will be polished so I kinda like the idea of the high metallic silver and its bring,then maybe put a hint of pearl in it,but not sure what color.
Im still thinking of what color I want
neon green or pink would most definatly suit that car
