Id suggest looking to nissan for your colours. Either Bayside blue from their GTR34 range, perhaps with a midnight purple pearl for the added darkness
Or straight out GTR33 midnight purple, looks black at night, and when light hits it, radiates purple...

One colour ill suggest u'll struglle to find, but ill tell ya neway... Over here we have a company called Holden, makes most of our cars in australia, they have a sports offshoot called HSV, you may be aware of pontiac GTO, the new one, thats a HSV monaro. www.hsv.com
anywho, they make a colour called cherry black, look into that one too, deep reddy purple in day, dark black to dark purple at night. very nice
cheers
josh

My car is getting painted Daytona Blue in March. Type in Daytona Blue and 350Z and Paint Code into Google and you'll find it. Color code is B17

Just go to a reputable body shop and look through the colors until you find what you like.

I painted mine Lamboghini blue because that was what appealed to me. I don't know the paint code however.

dont tell me that you have a factory cym and you are going to paint over it man. Thats wrong in every sense of the word. Its one of if not the rarest rx7 colors and if you paint over it you totally devalue that car and if you ever decided to sell it that cym paint would get probably at least 3-5k on top of any other color. But its your car but dont paint over the factory cym.

thats not factory CYM. The color might be but that car isn't a true CYM (hence the sunroof).

You should check out TV2 Bayside blue, its from an r34 GTR. Its the color my car is, although my paintjob sucks I only paid $200 for it.
