I have to admit, initially, I like the idea of BSG, but after seeing Steve's chop of the color on your sedan, it's just too bland/blah. I think a whiter white would do your car more justice, Chris.

But, since your car is already white, I can see your point of wanting to go in a really different direction than just another white. Best of luck on your decision, buddy. Whatever color you ultimately choose, I'm sure you'll pull it off quite nicely.

meteor grey metalic , its amazing up close.


I always thought if i were to ever change the color on my OB sedan i would make it Laser Red, i have yet to see a sedan in Laser red or Nissans old
Aztek Red.

Garrnet fire is nice but not for me.

^That's a nice color. I'd have to see that in person though cause in pics it looks like DG.

That Porsche is bad ***, no doubt but I'm not into the matte full body finish. Not my style

Thanks Rob Steve (naughty240) was right, this is going to drive me crazy lol No pressure right now though since I'm not ready to pull the trigger. I just want to try and keep an open mind and consider as much as possible but still have a few hard rules to stick by so I don't go completely nuts!
