hahah thats a nice blue, i've been wanting to change the color a bit without painting the engine bay over, not sure what blue i can get away with, but here's one of mine with a buddy's miata until i can get some more up.

<a href="http://s14.photobucket.com/albums/a333/boostedeuce/?action=view&current=134.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a333/boostedeuce/134.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

bad fc, is that what my color used to look like? haha, my fc's stock to the bone for now . . . i'd like to paint it another shade of blue but dont know what would match the stock color for the engine bay.

I've never seen another one with that white stripe. I'm not sure if it is factory or a previous owner put it on there, but I had another white FC with a similiar black stripe.

^ Looks great, lets see some more whole car shots. Ive been toying with the idea of going blue for a while. Ever since I saw a thread of a blue FC on here drifting. What do you guys think of Audi Nogaro Blue?

nice cars! i've actually been thinking of a few blue colors for my fc , as much as i'd like to keep the engine bay the stock color, i dont think i'd be able to pull it off. the stock blue is too greyish and light, if i were to paint it any updated colors it would look really tacky plus it'll take longer to install the new motor, test fit it, pull it out, tow it to paint, tow it from paint, and the reinstall the motor *sigh* oh well, gotta pay to play
