Choosing Paint Color HELP!
I really need help with choosing the right paint color. The old owner said it was the original blue but he painted it BLACK (HORRIBLY PAINTED!!!) It needs a lot of body repairs but its all repaired so i just need help with choosing and i really want to see some ideas.
I like that original metallic blue so if anyone can post up some pictures of their original blue or painted blue third gens that would be great!
ALSO, someone told me i should go with a flat black but with a flatten clear coat. I saw one picture on google on the third gen berlinetta but it was only the front. If anyone has one or has more angles of one PLEASE post it.
(BTW sorry if i posted this in the wrong area PLEASE dont delete the post just move)

Re: Choosing Paint Color HELP!
I thought about flat or satin black for mine. The previous owner painted it maui blue, but it is a crappy paint job. So I'm gonna do it the original color gunmetal gray. The door jambs are still gray and they look good. Here is a pic of it now, and a pic photoshoped gray.
