    I have a 1997 GTP 2 door and I'm going to re paint the car this summer,I want to go custom with it but not over the top and really flashy. I'm thinking a nice silver metallic with blue or red accents/graphice but I'm open to suggestions,I wanna be original but not too over the top with it.

    A nice gunmetal or silver would look good. Personally I wouldn't do black.

    I'm not real sure what i wanna do yet,I like the way they look now but I'm always open to ways to make them look better,any ideas for color options on the car? I want to do a custom job that's enough to get noticed but suttle enough to not be one of those paint jobs that are like HEY LOOK AT ME!!!!!!! you know what I mean? I want something thats clean and looks good but isnt begging for attention

    Silver, Black, and almost any tone of blue have been what I usually look for paint wise on a car. I'd keep the rims the way they are, silver 5 spokes provide a nice clean and sporty look to cars IMO.

    As far as the color for the car I think a nice green or blue would look killer. Or the blue that comes on the 04 special editions with a silver flake in it.

    personally not a big fan of stripes. I'm a simple guy with simple taste.

    I'm partial to white cars because I love the color...if I had the option I'd have a white prix.


    can't go wrong with this color combo. clean and badass.
