Well, bright will always get the ladies attention! Thats always been my thought! I used to have a purple/blue aka blurple Intergra with chrome! There was a Corvette Royal Blue that was almost Candy Cobalt Blue looking that was tight and bright! The good think like my interga was is that the engine compartment will be black and match. How long? 1 1/2 month?

laguna seca blue

But imo, your car your choice

If I could go back, I would get the olive green.

I think if you just actually left everything else regular chromed, it would look pretty sick IMO. The KV2 will make a nice contrast with the existing chrome. Just my 0.02

Good call on the black roof though. I got mine vinyl'd to be black and I don't think there's any other way to have it. Keep us posted!!

Can't wait to see it athlete silver, I love custom colors.

The sickest paint color on a Lexus I've seen is the Project GS by Five Axis done in Titanium Satin.

I'm curious why you want to change the color? Cause the paint looks bad or just cause..
