I was planning on getting a ice blue pearl white.This color will make my wheels stand out. The color looks little like this.

Or i was going to get a matte black, which would go great with my wheels. But i cant decide which one to go with. Has anyone ever seen a pearl white g35 coupe? Post sum pics so i can get a general idea. And what do yall think would the best color?

thanks for the link. I found bunch of G's in that color, the only reason i want that color is because it gives off a blueish purple when the sun hits it. But i rather go with matte black

Dont do it! The color of your car is sick. Painting it devalues the car not to mention, the color of your car is sick! LOL. Get wheels that make your car stand out, not the other way around, but personally i think your setup now is dope!

By the way, if your gonna def paint something, you can add a pearl color to any color. Its put in the clear coat. Think about adding a pearl color clear over your current color. It will keep your current color and still pop like crazy in the sun!

I like the DG, but i had it for too long. Im getting kinda of tired of it. I might just let the whole idea go and invest in a air suspension, or a turbo and take my time to pick out a color that no one has.

Don't do it! Stay with the DG. I have a DG as well and I LOVE IT! I just stare at it and never get tired of seeing it. I wouldn't change to any other color if the paint job was free.
