  • New paint job, need color recommendation

    Okay, I want to take my car to a copper orange kind of color from it's current mystic teal. What I am wondering is if it will be a total waste of my time to do it(as far as engine bay, hatch, door jams, etc) or if I should go to my original color. I'm just going for something different.
    Color suggestions might help also.

        NAVY BLUE METALLIC!

        I say keep it the same, I thought mystic teal was a little rarer? Its a big deal to paing doorjams and engine bay and such.

          Go with "Ermine White" (1st Gen. off-white color) and Navy Blue Stripes.

            It'd be easier and much less expensive to keep it the same color.

            But if you do wanna change to the copper orange color, check out the 350z color Le Mans Sunset:
