help! cant decide on my new paint job

Hello everyone my car is in the shop waiting for me to pick a color to paint my evo. Its original color was GG but i want to go with a white(Alpine white from an e92 m3) or EB or RR.


If you guys could please post up some picks of your cars it would be easier for me to compare instead of jumping from the official WW- to official EB- to official RR evo threads hahaha.

Id really appreciate it.

White, it is much easier to hide scratches than a darker color.

Do something not OEM! Do the pearl white that comes on IS250...



Or the white that comes on Cadillac's....

Alpine white does look good! I just don't know if I could spend 5 grand + on a color change and have it look so close to an OEM color haha.

My vote would be Lamborghini black, but from your list I'd choose EB.

Do a different shade of gray. That way you don't have to do the jambs, inside of doors, trunk hood, remove motor and paint engine bay, etc.

Do the gray from the ZR1.
