My favorite color for is Candy Cobalt Blue. Crashunits cars is painted that color. I also like Chevy's Indigo Blue on some of there trucks but GM paint sucks.

It seems like everyone and their gardener is painting their FD some shade of medium blue ... something along the lines of Viper blue, MazdaSpeed blue, 98 blue, of Civic Si blue and everyone throws "candy" in or something and it looks a little different. It's still medium blue and this is just my opinion, but I think there are other colors that favor the car much more.

I know a really pretty color because it's the color of my school and therefore the color of winners -- Carolina blue. Maybe one day I would paint my car Carolina metallic to show my school spirit if I wanted attention, but I don't so it's gonna stay black. I don't think it'd be the greatest color for any car anyways, it's just my favorite color ... ahhhhhhh ... Carolina. Too bad a lot of ricers use something close to it and call it "baby blue" or "powder blue."
