They still teach spelling and grammar at some point in school, right?

To answer your question: please don't paint it the "F&F" green. Red is a hot color for verts, and it costs a butt-load more money to change the color of a car, but it's your money. If you've got it, spend it!

but dont be a flamer and paint it bright green, like some f-n ricer kid... if you want a green car, do the rotary world a favor and get a civic... it's an injustice to even consider doing something like that to a 7 *cringes*

The Mazda Factory Service Manual says you cannot paint a vert green, unless it already has the factory green interior. Some sort of safety issue.
























It keeps you from getting shot.

calm down with the freakin animatied things it gets damn annoying. and NO the verts dont need to be painted green. paint it black. but if you paint it green you automatically become a ricer bitch. do you want to be a ricer bitch? didnt think so

Hey guys?

Its his car, I personally don't perfer it but it is his money and his time being spent on it. Lets say he wants to be rice, let him do it. If he wants maybe a dark green or something else? He didn't really specificy. So back off, its kinda assinine to read what is being said here without all the info.

i was going to go with black/ chrome trim to replace the black trim, but i can find chrom trim, dont do green, if anything do black with a tone of blue, or black fade into blue, but thats alot of money, id be better to spend it on parts to make ur car faster. just my 2 cents
