What color should I paint my 87 Trans Am? Here is a pic of it now and ill post a pic after it gets repainted.
I need some creative suggestions. I have about $4,000 to spend on a paint job.

You will have to look at cars on this forum to give you an idea of what color you would like.

Nothing wrong with a black TA. Silver is sweet as well. Are you going to puller her down and do all the door jams, under the hood and hatch? What was the stock color of the car? I have always loved the white 3rd gen TA's as well. Here is a pic of the stock paint on my 87 TA-I love the 2 tone. Someday I would like to have her repainted just like she is now.

Man someone made a mess out of it with that yellow.
What was the original color? What color is the interior? My favorite is the medium metallic blue with silver gfx, but it only looks right with grey interior. I recommend getting a correct spoiler too.
