Can I Get Some Pics Of Black TII's?

I'm looking for a bunch of pics of black TII's, the more the merrier. I'm getting a new paintjob, and I prefer black on most cars over red, but I really like the red color thats on now. I need some pics to decide. Also, how much more expensive is it to get a car painted a new color compared to getting it painted the same color?

There's mine. Watch out for black though, there's tremendous upkeep. Every imperfection shows.

Agreed. Once you wash it, the first mist that hits it....

Anyone else drive all around puddles in lots?

the only thing that protects against them is either looking/taking pics of your car from farther away.

those pics i have above were taken right after i washed/dried/waxed my car all by hand adn i still had stains!

I think you should stay with the OE color.
Check out Scott 89t2's car. A nice display of red!

Are you going to paint the engine bay and door jambs as well? I think it looks kinda tacky if you dont.

Red is the best color. Either that or midnight blue.

I like how white looks on it, but white isn't my kind of color.

I like my Maaco dark blue with primered hood and dented left quarter panel. I used to love black, but everyone and their dog has a black car now...do something different!

my TII is black (sorry no pics, and its all torn apart)
i love the black its awesome, night rider style. but once i do my TII swap into my red N/A im having the dull red painted the new red on the RX-8. its amazing i saw it at the dealer. so as much as i love black... im gonna switch to red. Also when changing colors, its easier to keep the same kinda color because of door jams, hatch jams, engine bay, more of the original color shows than you might think.

White FCs are sexy as hell. Actually, monochrome scemes are the best IMO.

If my car wasn't black, it would be something dark grey, silver, or white.
