The dark blue on the M3 looks really good. I don't know for sure, but I think it's called mystic blue metallic (correct me if I'm wrong). Here is a picture:

one of the guys at AMS had a candy apple red evo, I wasnt a fan of that color on the evo. I think brilliant fine metalic blues and greys or primary colors compliment the evo alot better than candied or chamilion paints do.

Ha, I just went out in the garage and snapped some crappy pics under the flourescent lighting. Pretty accurate color wise, and only having 2 coats of clear.

I'm thinking about painting my car a Kandy Purple Pearl w/ black roof for "show" purposes. Maybe w/ a black base so it doesn't look too light. Doing my wife's Matrix purple too, but I think she wants it dark, almost black.. kinda like my black IX.

What ever u paint it, make sure it's a better job than Mitsu puts on there Evo's. I have an 05 and the paint job sucks. Should not have to clay bar your car 10 times/year. Ridiculous!!!

Nah, we just used that stock header when we got it running to check the wiring and everything. It's got a Precision SC60 waiting to go on.
