I like Charcoal better and thats what I voted for. However it will cost you more and is more involved to do.

I want your car. I think it is the best looking paint scheme out there.

If you are going for a totaly different color than the origional and you like the gray color, go with Black Pearl.

That color rock period. I want to paint mine oneday when I have money. I have seen it on anly two cars. It is a beautiful color.

We need a paint locker, where people good with photoshop, etc. can keep a library of SVX's in different colors. I can barely spell photoshop, so I'm out.
