Default Color change: G35 coupe

Well my coupe is currently the factory OB but before the motor goes in ive been thinking about painting it Glacier frost mica which comes on the 06 lexus is350 and gs models.

Here is the car with half the panels on, unpainted (TS widebody) and some pics of the mica color.

Anyone want to try and photoshop the white panesl black in the first pic?

Just wanted to get some thoughts, b/c im about dead even between the two colors. Keeping it clean and detailing are not an issue and I know both are hard to keep looking good, the black for sure.

There are TS widebodies out in both colors so i dont really care if the car ends up looking like the original TS one or someone elses. The color will be different enough anyways, subtle but different.

That glacier frost color is amazing! Are the wheels in the first pic the ones you are going with? They would really set that car off with the white!

I think im going to leave it black, but probly add a little flake in it or something. Of course a clean OB car looks so deep and fluid.
