All.
White.

But if you do decide to go all white, please paint the door jambs and hatch jamb as welll.

current project: looking :(
All black, but its your car, you make the call..
In my opinion option1 and don't change your spoiler. It's better than GT4 with raiser blocks.

engine bay, door jams, trunk jams.......why not just keep it black, obsidian black

I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
Lip looks good man! personally i think a deep red pearl candy would be THE SEX. like almost a burgundy but not quite. w/ bronze wheels... i would hump your car.



im just sayin.....

I decided to go with white pearl. The shop started to sand it and covering all the small dents. Doors were removed, todayvthey will remove the hatch and fenders

White pearl was on my list too. It's very nice, especially with cf details. What about the pearls? Would it be in other color or colorless?
In case of my celi the fenders were painted on the car.
Well, I'm looking forward to see the resutls wink.gif
Thats a good choice you can hardly ever go wrong with pearl

The one bad thing about tri-coats is that you can never perfectly imitate the color a second time. It almost always has to be blended into the other panels which ends up costing a lot more... but its so sparkly and nice to look at biggrin.gif
