Be crazy and do a metal flake or candy color. You can do any color, just make it sparkle.

Agreed, they have some really beautiful colors. I wanted to do a black with a light blue pearl so when the sun hits it, it looks midnight blue, or do a black and red pearl.

Ey man, first of all i didnt get it for my bday, second of all i have VERY much respect for this car and i aint gotta rice it out, if you want to know the things i am gonna do with it then ask me before you saying anything. The reason i asked for a color is because you guys are the older ones i am just lookin up to you guys and asking for opinions..

if you are serious about repainting the whole car, you cant go wrong with the mazda speed blue color. the white and gray from the spirit R is ok too.

OkeyDokey then. The Innocent Blue from the 99+ run is as nice as it gets. You'll stay under the Cop radar too.

If you don't paint the whole car including engine compartment, jambs, etc etc you run the risk of a purist slashing your tires. Since that is EXTREMELY $$$$$ (more than what a lot of the cars are worth as whole cars!) just paint it the same color and be done with it.

the FD already came with nice colors..

just repaint it the same color, cause if you go with a crazy color, are you gonna do the engine bay too? if not, it will look funny..

what color is your car now?

i was thinking about doing a unique paintjob for my FD like metallic gunmetal or some **** like that but i figured a fresh VR is like one of a kind, usually people have their VR's but its like dull or not as fresh, then they just repaint it another color..

Three stage with this color combo...

*Black base

Would look black 95% of the time and dark green the other 5%.
