Yeah, i've always envied his car. Its amazing. I think i've got it down to Phoenix yellow, Eggshell Black (flat black), or Champ white.. Just got to 100% make up my mind and then roll from there with ordering the paint and wheels to match.

well i would go ahead and cross out eggshell black because you don't drive a bagged s-dime. But i think the champ white or phoenix yellow if you wanna make a real bug statement. You really don't wanna look like everyone else with a white carbon fibered out..you know?

Phoenix yellow FTW, cause white and black has already been done before so time to switch it up and get something different, in that case I would slap on some black GT3's on it. just my opinion
Re: To be painted.. Yet which color?
are your door jambs and engine bay going to be painted too? i think both black and white are hard colors to keep up on. they both get dirty quick, but i like white way better.

Whats up guys.. almost got all my parts together. Just have to still decide on paint. I've definitely narrowed it down to NHBP or Phoenix yellow. Getting a carbon fiber hood in the process too.. Leaning more towards keeping it NHBP (you have to admit the color just looks amazing clean) but i can't get over how good the Phoenix yellow looks on our 7th gens. SkideleeDoo. (For you Dane Cook nerds)
Re: To be painted.. Yet which color?
Champ white gets dirty quite a bit, but on a 7thgen I think it would just be so clean. My votes are for yellow or champ white. Black is too cliche...
