    I think I'm gonna have the whole car re-painted soon. I'm thinking of sticking with black, tinting the windows all around, and polishing the exhaust tips or getting quads. Probably debadging and getting new headlights too. I think I'm just gonna keep the stockers and convert to HID...or should I get projectors? And I'm deciding if I want to get inlays for the rear bumper, what color if I do? Red maybe? I'm going non-reflective, I hate flashy ****. Any input? Likes/dislikes? As far as mechanical I will be doing some more engine work but haven't decided exactly what other than it will involve a pulley drop, retune, and maybe meth or an IC. But I am taking out the poly mounts except for when I go to the track, sick of the vibration.

    It's black already, yeah it's a pain in the ass in the winter but it looks damn sexy in the summer.

    I own a black GTP...and yes...it stays dirty year 'round.....
    Personally I think that Silvermist or Galaxy Silver looks best on these cars, really sets off the lines of the car.

    If my gets resprayed, it's going to be silver.

    Also, I love my projectors.....

    took forever to aim...

    bounced like hell...

    look sick.
    Finally aimed them and cured the bounce..
    Great light output non HID.

    Black w/Silver or Red F1 striping would look HOT w/tinted projectors or tinted stockers. Black is beautiful but a pain in the ass to keep clean.

    Projectors look goofy on black GP's IMO.

    I think id take 99's pink idea before id do yellow accents lol. I think I'm just gonna get new, not yellow stock headlights and clear corners & convert to HID. Will probably stay black, but considering another color, I forgot what's its called, an old member had it. Some sort of blue...tropical something maybe? Too bad there's no way to convert a 4 to a 2 door.
