Hmmm maybe that was more DD v1.0

V2.0 would say: oh wait I do lots of stuff with my hot girlfriend that is for my eyes only, so cue the equipment, but then no website. *back orders Jergens*

So, I'm thinking of re-painting the car once winter is gone. Can't really decide on a colour, though.

The Red in the bottom right of the first link is what it is right now. Any of those you guys think looks good? Should I try some darker or lighter shades? Or if you guys have any other colours you think would look good on it is cool.

I'm just tired of red and not really looking for black (the Neon I used to drive was black and I'm tired of the bird crap, lol.

*Added another four colours/shades.

the red looks best. u should take the money you'd spend on a good paint job and get yourself a much sleeker, oem looking body kit.

Lol! I knew this would come up. :lol:

Don't worry I hate the 'their' garbage green but other greens are fine. My university's colours are dark green and gold. :wink:

Oh, and I tried purple (my favorite colour) but it just doesn't fit with the car, imo. :D

I did like the red when I first got it but having a red sports car up here just draws way too much cop attention. Though other colours may be more vibrant, they tend to draw less. Probably not like that down in the US, since there are sports cars everywhere.

About the body kit.. I'm looking at getting a different front bumper. I like the side skirts and rear bumper but the front one is just weird. This is the bumper I'm looking at right now: http://www.andysautosport.com/images/detailed_product/exterior/body_kits/body_kit_component/visi_f85tmr2d.jpg

I really appreciate the feedback, guys!
