Back into the Evo Community need help picking out a new color!

Just got back into the evo community, after a 2 year departure. Purchased a Apex Silver Evo 8 seen in the picture below. After spending months of looking I decided on this one, it was local and I was tired of looking(knew the entire history of the car).. I feel like changing the color I was never a fan of the Apex Silver color. Looking to keep this a factory color change. Need your help on deciding what color you suggest on this project car!

COLOR CHOICES ARE

Electric Blue
Lightning Yellow
Weightless White

It's your car man, paint it whatever you want...

I added a poll for you though.

The car looks sick. If you were to repaint, why not go a custom color?

I would say go for a custom color. Maybe Laguna seca blue? I think that would look great on an evo. But if you are set on a factory color, I would say lightning yellow, or electric blue. White is to common

If you want to stay factory color, my opinion is Electric Blue or Wicked White

IMO, WW would pop with your existing exterior mods. Maybe ditch the wing and go for a more subtle looking lip spoiler. Evo 7 Tails and Blacked out or JDM style headlights and maybe a vortex generator....

Car looks great as is...but, if it were mine..... Have fun with your decision!

This was my last evo. This is the look im going for. The Silver Evo I purchased above is missing some of the parts off and is a rolling shell right now!

I'd go EB but I am biased since that was the color I wanted. Why "weightless white" over "wicked white"? Wicked White is sharper to me.
