Default Custom Paintjob (ideas ideas!)

Hey! i'm new to the boards, i've been crusing the site for a while as a guest but now that i'm going to be a owner I figured i'd better sign up!

Basiclly I plan on getting a Z off of a slavage title and fixing it up. When the final day comes and its time to paint I want something specail.

Basiclly, I can't make up my mind between blue or black, so I was thinking 1 of 2 things.

1. Lund CTS Style - Top Black with black tinted windows, bottem blue.

2. Bugatti Veyron Style - Blue body with a Black Band that went from the grill then panned up the car and ended up takening up the entire back.

Too much?

Any other suggestions ya'll have?

My favorite Blue is the 350Z blue but I may go with porsche blue, that sounds like a good idea. Anyone know how many quarts of paint go into one coat? (so i can get an idea of how much I'll need)

Here's another color: Emerald Black. This isn't a very good picture; it was taken after the car was totalled, but you get the idea...

TVR Speed 6 Style. That green/red fading "spice" color would look nice on the Z.

How 'bout one of the House of Kolor Kameleon paints. Like silver to green, or red to gold?
