black with small yellow accents... like for example the front grill, dont have the whole thing yellow but do the outline of it yellow.
 


ok guys i think its between that purple on page 4... or a maroon color. id liek to make the whole fascia purple or maroon with a silver pinstripe. Cuz ive never seen tht on a gp before. what you guys think would be sexier? :p
 
if you go with purple...even maroon, go REALLY dark with the color. not so much as an off color black, but darket than you would normally see.

like bio said purple would look good, maybe the 40th anniversary color would make a good blend!
 
yea i was actually thinkin about the anniversary color lol. but i maybe want it a little lighter than really dark haha cuz i want people to actually see its not black lol but. im stuck between purple or maroon
 


no, not really. closest thing that would be good is a really dark metallic red. On the verge of being black. But that quality is more than you're wanting to spend i'm sure. I liked that yellow/black GP, he definitely pulled it off.
 
I wish I had a black grand prix ):

Marron/dark metallic red, almost the same thing..

Just get a nice dark red, it'll look evil.
 


no hell no. lol i mena like i think my mind is made up that ima do dark metallic red.. unless i decide to change my mind by the time i do it to yellow accents lol.
should i still keep the yellow fogs? i tihnk yellow fogs would still be ok
 
Theres a ton of people where im from who keep using that basic black and red theme too. It annoys me, thats why im keeping mine white. And believe me with what ive already done to it and what im going to do to it, theres not another one like it in my city. Try using some different colors than what you've seen on other cars before. I think black and gold would do really well and Ive only seen one like that, and not in person. I dont like the bumblebee theme to much unless its like what they did with the camaro. A yellow and black theme is really going to depend on the shade of yellow you use. To bright and it will look cheap. To dark and you wont notice it. Im sure you'll do it right if thats what you do. As for the black and dark metallic red those are two of my favorite colors, just make sure to pick the right shade of red, its important not to go to dark. However, all that really matters when you're done is that you the owner are proud of it. Good luck with the new paint scheme though, i look forward to seeing photos of it.
