midnight purple orange pink Etc just a totally different non evo color that will set if off more then what your thinking of doing any day of the week

I think white is an utterly boring color unless it has pearl in it (like Lexus' pearl white). White just seems to hide the sharp lines of the Evo. There has been a couple light greens on here that looked great.

I had a nice reply posted, but then refreshed the page and lost it.

What I want to say is if you are going to pay a bunch of money to paint your car, do it different, be unique. Why pay 8k to look like every other evo?

I detailed an oxford green BMW the other day and liked it. Here's the paint color.

McLaren's silver color is awesome.


If you go Green, at least choose Brittish Racing Green:

60's era shade:


Modern era BRG:



And a personal favorite, the Porsche I grew up with (sweet jesus I hated being in the back seat, but it was fast!)
