I liked the black and red theme you had going on. What kind of condition is your paint in?

i wouldn't go too far from the original color of the car. It will cost more, and wont look as good.

Inza Red is a hot color man. Especialy with black accents like you're doing. If you want just a little change, check out SilverCL's (forgot his name) red. It's off of a TL if I'm not mistaken.
There's already so many black CL's out there man. If you do go black though, look into Java Black Pearl..

If money is no option paint it whatever you want. Respraying red would be much cheaper and Inza red is HOT (like previously mentioned)

if your going to repaint it red, chances are you can travel within the shades of red and still have your engine bay match..

black is so hard to keep clean, and easy to mess up with scratches and swirlmarks. If i had inza red, i'd keep it inza red.

haha. i still dont get it. either color would be nice. im a sucker for red cars, but those attract way more attention than it should (like from cops) so im kinda turned away from that color, and black is a universal color that anything can go with so thats good. but everyone and their mother has a black car so its hard being unique with that

Yeah, black would be all cool and shit till he pops his hood open...
He would get laughed at at meets.
looking cool at meets > looking cool at parties.
Besides, If I was getting a paintjob I wouldn't care about "credit". I would want what makes me happy. Within reason of course..

I think that's original. Stupidity and Creativity at the same time. I like it if it was a hood cruiser a track car.
