Which Color???
hey,
im dropping my car off for paint tomorrow and i am stuck between paint colors... i have a week to decide...
this is what the car is going ot look like:
orignal 99 front with plate holder
no wing in rear
scoot CF hood
shaved off antenna
i am deciding between 2 blue colors'....
IBM (Innocent Blue Mica)
Corvette blue (dont know name but its a Z06 color)
i am all for going IBM but i have never seen that color in person before and i dont know if i will like it. would that be a good thing to do? paint a car a color you have never seen in person before???
any opinions! Thanks!

The daytona blue looks very sharp on a sports car. It definitely stands out. Nice alternative to the stock montego blue. Whereas, the Z06 blue looks very classy and IMO, a bit more conservative compared to the daytona. I'd go with the Z06 blue but you really can't go wrong with either choice.

yes, i am really set on blue..... i have my color scheme set up already... interior is all black, exterior is going to be blue with a scoot CF hood and a CF 99 front lip to swap out for show's. then, im going to decide to go wingless for good or get the 99 spec spoiler from japan and color it blue with a carbon fiber center section....
also, i might go with the 57pro's in 18's or the GT-7's with a gold center and chrome lip...
