you know what they say "black is beautiful".....I would love to have mine in black, but I would have to shell out some major cash cause I would want one of those mirror black finishes like on show cars......

amrit April-8th-2005 10:20 PM

you guys can see what it looks like here:

i'm goin' for the sport20 look with an MP3 spoiler

i was just thinkin' of a subaru blue, what do you think?

The sport 20 looks very good in white, possibly even beter then in black.

BUt black always looks good! Nothing gets a nicer shine then black

agreed.. white is a good color, also easy to keep clean.. black is a biatch to clean

nothing shows dirt better also. I've got a black car but in a state where there is mud everywhere black or white are not good colors. Mine is always dirty.

ya dude its a badass color..not too dark; not too light; just right, and also its not a white color so u shouldnt hav to wash ur car like a million times. Anyhow let me know how everything goes. Im starting my car in like two weeks after i do all of the body job work; caz i hav lots of dents..then i should be able to put some primer on. Good luck man :dj:

MC April-15th-2005 09:27 PM

mine is currrently metallic silver and even when its covered in dirt... u caint tell its dirty from a distance. (not too far either even closeish)....

I'm waitin' to see those pics.

I still have alot of time to consider the color because I'll be doin' it sometime in June maybe.

But I think black is out. I love how black cars look, but the maintennance (as I have been told by many) is a bitch!

amrit June-11th-2005 09:01 PM

hey arabamer2004

did you paint your car in the skyline silver yet?

Da P-Funk! June-13th-2005 06:59 AM

I know you said black is out and here is another reason why it should be. On some cars it doesn't show the curve well. When I was looking for a P5 I wanted black or silver. The dealer got silver in and I loved it, the way it showed off the bumper and fenders. Every time I see a black one it doesn't even look like P5 to me. So go with something brighter like the "Skyline silver".
