After I get my Evo paid off, I want to look into getting a new paint job(and all the dents fixed). I have been toying with different ideas. If you could paint your Evo any color, what would it be?

I was contemplating between burnt orange (Signal Auto Japans color) or even the color of my old 240sx (emerald blue). Absolutely beautiful color! It was a dark green, but would shift from purple to green to blue. If you ever see a 240 that color go look at it in the light and you'll see.

And I've always love white with a blue pearl or possibly try a darker silver with a dark blue pearl.

Back when i had my GTI there was this article in eurotuner. The GTI in the mag was house of Kolors tangelo. Its orange/yellow. I would like to paint my car tangelo.

Tangelo looks hot! I also really like Signal's color scheme. I also like the arctic white(think frost) on the Cadillac Escalade. I've seen an Integra painted that color and it was badass.

My friend bought an red MR 6 months ago; before that I personally liked the electric blue on teh evo. Now I'm sold on the red.

Royal Saphire Pearl, its a Supra color, if you do the custom one it looks the best. It looks like this...

Ryan, you sure love blue. Although I can't say anything, since I was initially looking for a blue Evo. Can't pass up a deal though.

^^^ Its actually a little more purple. In that pic the car might have been shot with a bit more blue as the color is actually a purple/blue. At least the RSP Supras I've seen.

Ryan: Why don't you just buy a RSP Supra for a DD and leave the Evo BBY :P

That would be one helluva garage! A DD Supra with a track Evo that waits for weekends to stretch its muscular legs.

I actually plan to buy a RSP Supra as soon as the Evo is done. Evo will be a track car, yes a 750whp track car, and the Supra will be my highway beast. Im not sure what my DD will be yet, lol.

Oh and going back to this, Tripp the car shown in the picture has a custom RSP paint job, its a $10K paint job, and yes, its much more blue.

I have plenty of time to pick out a color, but then again it might take that long to decide.

Just my opinion but I think there are several things I would do before a paintjob, your paint looked fine to me.

Paint will definitely be the last thing to be done. Performance comes first. However, its never too early to think about what I hope to do to the Evo before it's finished.
