What color to paint my car.......

I dont know what color to paint my car. Some people are telling me to paint it white. Most people are telling me to go black because all their cars are black. Maybe a dark blue. Anyone have a silver car, with a pic? I would like to take a look. Im gonna stay with the black roof. Thanks.

Paint it the color it already is, so the engine bay doesn't look goofy

Re: What color to paint my car.......

Jet has a silver 1g that looks really nice and clean. I think white would look nice, but its too plain of a color and so is black IMO. Is this a 1G or 2G?

Anything but black or white. They are so plain. If you are doing silver why not go darker and do a gunmetal? Black wheels and a CF hood would make that sexy!

I suppose thats one way of looking at it. I just love the clean/sleek look. I get bored of colors more quickly.
