You're opinions please?????????

Guys, I'm torn!!!!

I own an 89 GTA... And I'm painting it a different color. It is now black, and I'm torn between two colors! My choice are

Chrysler Platinum (which I found out is FlyinLow89GTA's color)
Pepper Gray Metallic (color of "Eleanor", the shelby GT500 in Gone in Sixty Seconds

What do you all think??????

Just my opinion, but have you considered the C5 'Vette color (i believe it's called Titanium). That would be my pic.

Problem with the C5 Vette color is that I don't have the Dupont paint code for that. I have the exact paint codes for the other 2!

Check out No4NJunk's car, he has the pepper grey metallic I believe. Both look nice, but I like the platinum a little better.

everybody has a silver car these days... I'm tired of looking at the stupid things... it's a bland, unimaginative color... seems the next color of the year is set to be yellow... yahoo!... a yellow minivan... looks great socker mom!!!

Go with the pepper grey... looks much better... maybe add some flames in a slightly off shade... if you can afford it

The black looks cool but it heats up in the summer and is impossible to keep clean

How about CheeseWiz orange . IT's you ride, personalize it don't fall into the trap of what everyone else does. Find a standout color that isn't on every car on the friggin' road and run with it. Seriously, I saw a ride that Scott Sulivan buit (Cheesewiz orange) and it looked radical. Just be original, that's my point .

To answer your original question, ELENOR! If you're set on one o' those two. And paint the center of the rims to match (Killer look).

Lates,
