In the spring, i have decided I'm going to paint my car Black. What do you think the best color to paint the filler decals would be. Something subtle. I'm kinda leaning towards a dark silver. What do you guys think. Thanks

Painting the car a different color is EXPENSIVE, have to do the door jams and engine compartment, but Good Luck. I think that RI-SHO has the best combo with black and red.

I agree id go with the same color just for the fact that the Engine compartment,undebody,door jams trunk etc. with be a real PITA to paint and the car really would ver look right if a started looking close id just go same color because of the engine compartment you would have to remove the engine to really do it right.

I have light gray on my blue SHO.. looks killer if you ask me..

Black on the Red car.. So as long as the colors go well together I think your set. And dark gray on black would look killer I think

I know it's expensive. One of the guys at a dealership we clean cars for paints cars on the side. He paints a lot of the cars they get. I've seen his work. No Orange Peel, and you can't see the sand marks either. He does a good job. He said 1700 for trunk,engine bay, door jambs, etc. I think i'm gonna go with a dark gray. Thanks for the help.
