Wow, dark grey looks pretty sexy on the fc. I've always been partial to a lighter silver colour (yes it's colour, im from canada). So maybe some picks of that?

I'm thinking about getting my car repainted black, but when i clear it.... I'm thinking about adding a bit of purple pearl mica to the clear and putting some flames on the front, then clearing the whole car with an even lighter regular pearl mica mix, then hitting it with one final coat of clear... any thoughts on that... ?? (flame helmet on)

How much money would it take to get you not to do this?

i dunno the fc's got that blocky stance, it could work. you'd have to do it right to pull it off though

hmm...my last 7 was this color, but I only have printed pictures, as I had it before digital cameras were out...or popular, at least.

I should find a scanner and scan them to PC sometime...
