Not even considering the oem white I want soething that will look good with all of that aluminum work under the hood, and will look nice with all of the white batteries under the hood. I have worries about what people might call this thing if it is white and "powered with white" batteries, is powerful, and built by a big white guy... Anyway, white is out, and green is out. I already have two black Metros, and two blue Metros, si it would be nice to go with something new... Any suggestions? |

I've always been partial to Charcoal grey. But, wanted to paint my last car in the Chevy Inferno Orange. I think it is a good stand out color. |

My go-to answer to "what should I paint this?" is purple, because it's my favorite color. However...Most purples do not "scream"...

I think 94skate is on the right track... I am thinking something in the hot colors of yellows, oranges, and reds. Something that stands out, something loud and bold. Something that you have to be brave to try. |

![]() What about that "safety yellow" color? You know, the yellow that is a little bit green? Reflective vest color? |

There are some pretty insane color chips at my paint suppliers store. They are contoured and about 6"x6", and I can take them outside to look at in the sun. These may help me find something over the top. |

I like the burnt orange color you see on some of the newer Fords. |

my go to colors used to be corvette yellow with bright red wide stripes outlined with thin black stripes. you could see that from a mile away. i did a bright blue saab with yellow wheels and a swedish flag, yellow cross on a blue field, on the roof. that rocked. |

I recall the 'Big Blaze' project on Spike TV's Trucks. There was also a 'Copperhead' one pictured here. I have also seen local Mitsubishi Eclipse's painted in a burnt orange type color.
