Hi from oHIo
is it just me or was green the most common color? Mine is green also (for now)

Hi from oHIo
what color are you going to make it?
I dont know, i'm thinking of a dark gun-metal gray with a hint of metallic or some blue pearl tossed in. Might just go black. Depends on how much funds i have to toss towards paint when the time comes.

i see more red or white ones than anything else. silver is pretty common too. supersonic blue pearl and that voltage blue (00-01 ls) are the rare colors.

I have a friend who painted his a dark gun metal grey with a metallic hint. It looked pretty sweet. Blue Pearl would look cool though too, I think. The options amaze me. I would love to have the money to paint mine...course I would prob. go white because that's what color I've always wanted haha.

I used to work a parts counter for a Carquest store. I mixed up quite a bit of paint for the local body shops who only needed a pint or so. I was able to see many wonderfully fun colors. Dupont has a complete line of pearl additives in various colors that would make you drool. I mixed up a pint of white that had white and 2 different shades of blue pearl with a touch of metallic in it. It looked awesome, unfortunately i wasn't following a mix-guide so it would be pretty hard to match it. I have enough to do a gas tank and side panels for a motorcycle but thats about it. If you like white though, some white and light blue pearl in a white base coat is really neat.

I'd like to do some things to it eventually, but for now nothing. I'm in college and still can't find a job, so no immediate plans. I want to eventually get fogs on it, and the only thing on my to do list for it right now is get the security system/power door lock issue figured out. I probably won't do anything else until I get bored (and have some money!), and right now I'm pretty content with it how it is.

I was thinking if I ever got the money to paint it I would do maybe a pretty white pearl, but some blue would look nice, too. That'd be really fun, I think, to play around with the colors and see what you can come up with. If you put that paint you mixed up on anything, post pictures because I want to see what it looks like (in my head it looks really awesome lol).
