that color isn't too bad but the midnight blue is the best color for the vert IMO.

Isn't that harbor blue the most rare FC vert color?

If it is you may want to reconsider repainting. But its up to you in the end. Its your car and only yours.

Black FTW.

But I was contemplating painting my s4 vert Graphite Mica as well- would really look nice with my gray/black interior...

Either one rocks on the vert.
