Hey guys, any ideas as to what color I should paint my Murci.  I'm getting close.  I'm thinking of Red Pearl or Light Gray Pearl.  I wanna stay away from the typical yellow, etc...

Before you paint, you should see the color in person. You will get many opinions about what color to paint your car from this forum, but the only one that counts is yours. Go see the car in the color you want. There is nothing like seeing the car in person. Photographs, by nature, do not show the lines or the color correctly. Out of a studio, and in the sun, these cars look very different.

You should narrow down a few colors and than do a poll here.

bocelli go up to the second post (I think) it is lovef's post. He has a link there to the lambo colors with the ppg codes. That is where I got the code for the white and red.

I like the pearl silver.  Does anyone have any pictures or the color code for it.  I believe there are couple of different silvers.  Dark and light.  I think the light one is nice.

Darker colors actually show more flaws, lighter colors hide them. Look at a black car compared to a light colored one. Any sways in the panel of a dark/black car will be very apparant, whereas a lighter color will hide them. Black and darker car colors are like mirrors, the color will actually accentuate the flaws.
