Default paint help please

hey guys im getting ready to choose a color or colors for my car. any ideas?? I want something that doesnt look to factory. the only factory color i like is yellow... i dont see that many yellows running around. i have already googled everything to death and cant set my mind on one color or any two tone schemes. do we have a thread of all fox bodys in different colors?
Does anyone have a two tone scheme thats different. awhile ago i was thinking of doing Calypso green and silver bottom. but idk any help would be great or pics of your guys cars that are different would be nice. also i have a gray dash and center console so it has to match. was maybe thinking of competition orange/black wheels off 03 cobra, white with black hood and black wheels, blue... idk help

I think a fox in british racing green is a sexy beast, white offset racing stripe, black interior, I've seen grabber blue foxes, the color is just.....it wasn't something i'd do

Had a yellow SN95 thought it to be the best looking. Worked at dealer when they came out and thought them to be butt ugly. Put a reverse c stripe in black on and different rims. Fell in love.

go to a paint store and check out house of kolor

http://www.tcpglobal.com/HokPaint/?g...Fdj75wodvxHFGA

i prefer monochrome myself... over 2 tone. if i did a 2-tone it would be silver with ghost flames and thats about it. possibly calypso with purple flames

HOK makes a color super close to calypso green but seems to have a faint purple overtone. as soon as a i fix my wheel well im gonna repaint my whole car that color
