idea for my fc paint sheme

Well I was bored and decided to make this car in forza2, anyways this is the color that I want to paint my car, the wheels are very similar to mine too.
I just want to get some inputs of your opinions of with or without the look of the black hood.

If you sent it to microsoft, your wasting time. Its just going to break again. Theirs tutorials online on how to open it up and fix it.

I actually haven't done anything with it yet... I'm looking into some of the other fixes though.

A little bit of extra solder on cold joins and some new thermal grease on the heatsinks has had my zero hour system running for... well... since zero hour.

Haven't seen the red ring once.

Btw, go with all blue, but personal preference would be black rims on the blue. Not a huge fan of bronze on anything but black or white.

Powdercoat black = sex.

Blue hood with black rims and blue ring (if that offeset).....powdercoated blue lip if a different offset. Silver rims wouldnt look bad on that either.

That blue is sick. There are a few folks on the forum that have a blue very similar to that, one of them is that badass widebody coupe.

I like that bottom one. I actually was going to do something similar.

+1 for the last one but white with black rotors.

^that one's the best. The world doesn't need anymore FCs to be changed to white; Go with that darker color blue. The world needs more Blue FCs. Personally, though, i'd reccomend the dark blue with a hint of green that Mazda has used for the Mazda 3s.
Also, go with silver wheels... gold/bronze wheels always just look ick.
