Well i was going to paint my teggy a 2 tone with black with some flakes and a candy red but it seems like everyone else is going with those colors now. What type of paint should i do now? Everything will be shaved and prob. have a molded kit. I wont be painting it for a month or so.

Alot of people dont go with a real candy red... The paint is so damn expensive.. its like $190+ per gallon.. Look at house of kolors they have some beautiful colors..

no flake no candy no pearl... two tone is always nice but make sure you pick good colors ;)

Red and black has always been the most popular color combo... so dont make it sound like it's just a sudden fad lol. Black and grey or silver looks good too..

b/c its a waste of money on paint... just have a nice color done on your car and be done w/ it... like:

- Escalade peral white
- M3 Phoenix Gold
- M3 Laguna Seca Blue
- 350z burn orange
- Mazadaspeed spicy orange
- VW bug green (the bright one)
- JDM (metallic gray)

^^^^ all of those are great colors ;)

Yeah i was thinking about that too, black is the cheapest to buy and i can just put 6+ coats of clear on it and make it shiny as hell.
