Color choices
Heya people,

So I am going to paint my car soon. I've been thinking about a 2 tone color scheme but talking to my friend who's doing the painting that will cost me a fair amount more because he can't do the work in a single day then due to additional drying time within the heated spray booth.

So I am thinking about going single tone. What I can't seem to deside on is the color, offcourse a shade of blue seems best because it will match with my interiour and I'm only painting the outside of my car so the engine bay and such will remain blue for now. Still I think that isn't a good enough reason not to think about other colours.

White is probably my all time favorite but at the same time, I don't want people to think I want to be like all other Initial D loving AE86 ownersWink

Black is nice but I've heard small imperfections in the body really show on black and since this is a 20 year old car there are some imperfection in the body won't be able to get out.

Then there is a darker shade of blue which also has my preference..

Just out of interest, what would you guys do in my possition?

Also tell me if you think I should paint the bumpers in the same color or keep them black?

Greetz,
