nothing beats black with a metallic flake, but you can barely notice the flake, with chrome wheels and chrome 2 1/2 pipes out the back. ahhhhh, delicous!

335-30-18's and I LOVE em. I get comments on them everywhere I go by all walks. Perfect fit - couldn't stuff another mm in there without fender flares, and once I rolled the lips (always fun to do!!!), no more rub. They rock!

Wow man them things are HUGE!! But anyway, I like both black and red. I would go either but def get rid of the white. For some reason the only car I think looks good in white is a SN95 Saleen.

Nothing looks tougher than black on black.

I've heard rumors, and it could be BS, that black is a more difficult color, because any nick or ding left un-bondoed will show in daylight bad. So the prep work is more difficult....who knows. It could be BS, but I've heard it for years and never the opposite until now. Are there any pro painter that can comment?

Black is a very hard color to work with. i had a professional body shop touch up a few spots on my door, and they ended up having to repaint half the car b/c when i got it back i pointed out that you could tell there was a distinct difference in the colors and that i wasnt paying for the work unless i was happy


not too bad though... got ALOT more then i paid for... [sm=happy046.gif]
