Well, money may be the final deciding factor here. I'm still waiting for the quote from my man George. Black will be by far the easiest on my wallet.

If I could get another color besides the best color (NFR), it would definately be black. You can't go wrong with black. Nothing looks better than a deep, glossy, wet... errrr.. BLACK CAR. On top of that, like Colin said, it is a difficult job and your paint job will NOT be perfect. Trust me.. you don't want to go through the hassle of dealing body shops coming in to redo things because of mismatched paint, overspray, orange peel, etc. It sucks! You get what you pay for and the best shops here in Hawaii that I myself would trust in painting my car cost around 4500 for a full paint job (engine bay). The thing about black though, since its already its original color, and the fact that its black, its imperfections would be stealth, if there are anyway (to include overspray on moldings, latches, wheel wells, etc). And unless you plan on keeping the car forever, a noticeable paint job (two noticeable colors) would lower the value of the car. Stick with black!


I know you've seen this, this is what you can do with black

Moonrock would be sweet. Not to flashy yet it'll still stand out.

Moonrock is cool, but Steve made his reputation on black. Steve and Colin made black famous.

Now only if I can do the same for NFR...

Ummm, Colin doesn't own a black S2K. Are you sure that wasn't me?
