Guys, this has nothing to do with the GTX, but the Impala SS clone I am working with. Its getting painted this weekend and for 2 months now I have been set on a two-tone black and slate grey combo. However I seen a pic of one and now I really dont like it. The big thing is picking a color that matches the wheels I have for it. Here is the car and wheels,

I was thinking black, dark blue, or a red...I am so flustered and its only a few days to choose. I would ask an Impala forum but have of them are tryin to make donks and crazy retarded crap. I want a nice american muscle look. Please any thoughts are appreciated.

Ive always like those cars in black. no other color really seems to go well on that car IMO... but looking at the pics you posted im thinking a dark gunmetal with black accents might look badass. do you have any other pics like maybe a side shot that i can play around with in photoshop with for you?

Did you center the rear axle?

Ever think of using Holden colors? They have their color palatte online at HSV.AU.COM

I really dont have much how about this:

Center the rear axle? What do you mean?

I like those wheels alot, Very Nice!!
I have not seen those before where did you find them?
My car is Ivory, I had an SE before and it was dark metalic blue with tinted windows and it was pretty. Chicks loved that car.
If my car was dark I would consider the dark metalic blue but it's not so when I do repaint I'm thinking the pearl white that Cadillac used a year or two ago.
Dark blue thats the ticket with those wheels....Bad A$$

i think that car looks like it has brakes from a Geo, and the two tone doesnt really work on the SS...

black gets my vote, hands down!

How about a really deep cherry red?? Just a thought. I saw a grandam with black rims and cherry over black base. Looked stellar.

Midnight Blue

Thank you all so much for your input. I am leaning towards 2 different options BLACK and this its a real nice blue. What do you think.

Minus the large chrome, going with the grey five spoke at the beginning of this thread.
