    Please change the color of my car!!!! vote on the color too

    so I'm going to have my car painted hopefully by the end of the year if all goes to plan, I'm debating between phantom black and graphite grey, either way I go, I'm going to be keeping the carbon fiber portions of my car unpainted, so photoshop jockies, paint the car for me, and everyone else, vote on the color, cuz I honestly can't pick between the two. or if you can think of another color that will flow well with the carbon, please tell me!!!
    if you guys can change any of these pictures, that'd be great!

    i'd say do a white. ive always liked how white contrasts with cf.

    ^I would do white, but Cali's white 8G already did the whole white and cf thing, so I want something else.

    ^no crazy colors lol, to be honest guys, I'd keep it bodega beige if I could, cuz I really like the beige a lot, but it seems to me I'm one of the few that likes the beige with the CF .... :( so I suppose another option is just getting all the dings fixed and just getting a new coat of bodega beige (flame suit is on) lol

    dark graphite will do but make sure it's not too dark or your car will blend in with the cf.

    ok, I would do white Noel, but you already did the white and CF scheme so well, I could never live up to that standard.

    I think white would off set the cf quite nice!!! Dark colors will blend for sure. My friend has a black civic and cf hood and can't really tell between the cf and black!!

    honestly, u will be following CALI and BILLET w/ the black, white or graphite w/ CF. that's one of the reasons i went w/ a mercedes color (daimond silver pearl metalic) to be different... it doesn't often show well in pictures, but my car can go anywhere from silver to light blue depending on the lighting; bright daytime it looks bluest and at night it look the most silver:


    CALI's BLACK, my SILVER and BILLETS GRAPHITE (w/ candy red CF)

    here's better look at their colors:


    CALI


    BILLET


    REELAX silver pearl (BILLET's car behind)

    how about a dark metallic purple or burgandy... kinda like the old M3 purple... would be a SICK complimentary color to the CF w/o being super contrasty. pretty eye catching but still very classy and subtle:

    greddy how do you feel about red? There are some beautiful red's out there and the carbon fiber/red combo is beautiful IMO.
