Color options ?

Im getting my FC repainted soon, and I was originally planning on sticking with the stock color ( Arctic Silver, J5), but now Im thinking of maybe going with something different. Just wanting to get some suggestions, possibly stock paint colors from other cars. I had 3 in mind.

1- Stock deep red found on MKIV Supras. Im not sure the exact color name, but Ive seen it once inperson and it is beautiful, very deep metallic red.
2- Electron metallic blue, found on newer ( 02+ I believe) Corvettes. Very dark blue, nice color.
3- ( and probbaly the one Ill get made fun of for ) The orange and black color scheme you see on the new Boss F-150 trucks. I just really like that orange with a black hood.

Im open to any suggestions

well, its easier to suggest things the person (you) likes, unless you are compleeetely open.
i like Honda's Champion(ship?) White. i love white cars, though. the FD white may be as impressive, but i havent seen it in person in a long time.
midnight blue is also nice. i have a 91 with that factory color (5N).

haha, its okay, next time i'm in PA i'll just have to kill you. until then, no worries..
i havent seen the Boss trucks, though the mustangs were okay. i dont know about an orange 7, though. i like to keep colors neutral (instead of too racey). i like reds too, though.
the electron blue is kinda played out. its awesome, though. no doubt.
i dont see how you can not like some white cars. maybe i just like em so much i'm narrow-minded.

I kind of agree that the color choice is a little "wild', but it does look good.

the colors and color scheme are cool (heh, in my opinion the truck itself is unbareably [sp?] tacky), but i still dont know if i'd want that as my everyday drive. like the 787B color scheme, its cool, but kinda wild (aiight aiight, i'd rock the **** out of it everyday with a big grin). maybe stick with the design and change the colors if you decided against the orange. maybe red and black? or WHITE and black !! gotta love the white, right ?
