color pearls are gay and 1/2 the time don't look good b/c most painters don't do them right....

just do a nice color like that bad ass Escalade pearl white - STI blue - 350z orange - M3 pheonix gold - Xb black cherry - Protege spicy orange - Bug green or sky blue - JDM gray (lol)

factory colors are the best choices to choose from, but I would have to say paint it Championship White, can't go wrong with that.

It also depends on how much you wanna spend.
