Taking a color poll.
I hate the color red so I'm taking a poll to see which way I should go with my Trans Am. I have a black leather interior coming for it and I've got the perfect rims picked out for the two paint schemes I've come down to.
So do people think I should go white with a custom black bird on the hood or black with a custom white bird on the hood.
I like how white looks on these cars with the ground effects, though, black is one of my favorite colors, but most people like or want these cars painted black, I like to be different. This is why it's a toss up.

Re: Taking a color poll.
At a swap meet/car show last month I saw an Orange one that look really good. It was a bit darker than Hugger Orange. Real clean look. I've always liked white or black.

Either 17s or 18s. I don't want them to be too big. I don't want to have to make modifications to run them without rubbing with normal use.

Re: Taking a color poll.
some sort of creamy white or perhap a metallic white. Id avoid pearl unless youre having it done professionally, and even then Id only use a little to give it some warmth. Id alsomake sure you cut n buff the clear coat (if youre doing a base/clear) as nothing makes white look nappy more than 'orange peel'

Re: Taking a color poll.
As always I vote for black, all black, no graphics. But then again I am biased and that's only my opinion.
Re: Taking a color poll.
too many black. id go white with a blue bird. my 84 is going to get painted mercedes designo graphite metallic. did it on my old motorcycle and i love the color. it will look stealthy but not a cookie cutter car like all the black ones.

Re: Taking a color poll.
I do like the gun metal gray on the bottom of my car, I have thought about going with that all over, but since my Nissan Frontier is that color I will avoid having two vehicles the same color.
White will never be as deep looking as the darker colors, when I paint mine again I am thinking of a pearl white on top and gunmetal gray on the botom, I do like the two tone look.

Re: Taking a color poll.
Are you going to change the color of the engine bay, too? I'm guessing it is still red.
