Of those two I would go with the darker silver, but if I could paint my car any color I would go with le mans sunset (sunset orange).

The blue would look good. Look around ive seen some dope colors on some of the euro cars. Ferrari does a lighter blue that is amazing.

wow... total car color is a toughy...

I always considered the fact that engine bay; door jams, trunk lid & bay would need to jibe...

Lately though I've seen some insane ****!!!! caskyline, rookie, for example... Damn! You'd never know their cars weren’t produced that color

If you are hard-core like them - I'd say find a real unique color (and that’s totally subjective... your taste)... otherwise, find something that doesn’t clash too much with the innards of your car.

If you are able to go full-blown… I’ve been dying to see someone do Black-Chrome!

I wish I was hard-core

i thought about black chrome but its a very very difficult procedure and chances are the clear will delaminate in a few years

yeah... thats probably why I've never seen it ...

Maybe you'll feel daring and try it - what the hell, in a couple of years you can go a different color

theshawn, are you actually serious about this, if you are, i would try to do something never done b4, but something you still like.

just go for it man, a good shop could do any color you want, i would also try maybe a metallic black, or a very very dark grey.

didn't know 350z came in Cobalt Blue.

But a Daytona Blue it does, and a g35 has been painted that color before.
