Painting my FC. looking for something different

Ok. me and my race buddies were talking about my FC. and we came to the subject of paint. and well.. they want me to keep it white.. white FC's look good. but i want something different...

Im thinking blue.. I havent seen many FC's painted blue.. Soo.. does anyone here have a blue fc?? i wanna see pics..

or if anyone has any other thoughts for colors. nothing crazy like pink. or yellow. though a yellow fc might be cool...

lemme know what you guys think! btw my FC is currently an off white... all original except exhaust.. and stereo.. but yeah. shoot me some ideas

if they want you to stay white but you want blue you can give your car a blue ghost pearl...basically when the sun hits your car it will give of a blue sparkle in that area.

hmm. well when i get it painted i will get everything painted. im not going to get a cheapy macco paint job. im prolly going to spend 2kish on some good paint..
but i dont wanna stick with white.. but ive seen one fc yellow. its a possibility. but i do want it to somewhat match with the interior. its blue. i might even do a two tone. top black and bottom blue. or yellow. even possibly green.

i dunno.. im just tryin to get some idea. i want everything to kinda match...

but keep them coming

If you're gonna go white, go Crystal White Pearl Mica. It's a recent Mazda color that is gorgeous. If the car is an S4, I like keeping the molding black for the contrast, but that's just me. As far as blue, can't go wrong with Innocent Blue Mica.
