Default options options options-help

Soim getting my car repainted soon and haven't decided on the color yet, so I'm comming to y'all for some help. To help y'all with your sugjustions, my car has charcol grey 18x9.5 Rota Grids, will be slammed on coils, 35% tint.

My color choices are:
1)Black Jade Peral w/ metalic grey bumpers and caps - Won't need to spray the jams since its already that color
2)Titianium Grey Peral
3)Satten Black
4)Gloss Metalic Black w/ metalic grey bumpers and caps
5)Gloss Metalic Black


Thanks for your help!

i would go with the color that your jams are already painted so it all matched nicely. i would then spray the bumpers and caps with the same color, so it's all monotone. my $0.02.

Just wait. Don't get the colors others want. Wait until you're dead set on what you want then go with it.

I know.. I am just looking for a little insite. If I go sattin black ill have to do the jams also. I know what I want, I am just mainly trying to find out if its worth a ful color change or not. Keep in mind that I'm going to keep the tan interior.

Go get some mineral spirits from walmart, autozone, advanced or where ever.. the use a rag w/ the mineral spirits on it (not soked, just slightly damp) then wipe it down. Then take a dry cloth and wipe it down again.

Btw.. welcom to CL. I see that was ur first post.

Sounds like your coolant might be leaking into your air ducts in dash. Had an old van that the heater core started leaking and blew that stuff on front window.
