Default paint help

hey guys just looking for your opinion my z will be coming apart next weekend for the rest of winter because i order new wilwood brakes in quick silver finish and new megan racing spec rs coilovers and works vsxx wheels in gold and i will also be taking all of the suspension off and sand blast it and get it powder coated colors depending on what i do for the body. the body will be getting painted but i dont know which paint i like best im looking at the stryker red that srt made or just repainting it with the original brickyard color. so if you could tell me what color you guys like or any other color suggestions would be helpfull.

If you want to paint your car and not set on a color yet, I would hold off. That is alot of money to just waste. Is something wrong with your current paint? Why do you want to paint the car?

Well I bought the car from a idiot who didnt take care of it so the paint needs to be redone and I like the stryker red which is what I will most likely do im just seeing if any one else has a cool color that they think would go well with the wheels and brakes I have gotten

Can you post pics?

Sometimes a professional detailer can work wonders on paint correction. If it is beyond repair, then I would consider wrapping the car due to the cost.

Squal I agree completely with you but I already brought it to a detailer and informed me it would not be worth his time and also I would not do a wrap because it is a car that we are bringing to sema next year so it has to be flawless (well at least pretty darn close)

In that case paint it Brickyard. Awesome color, I would not change it, plus it will probably be a little cheaper than painting the car a different color. Have to figure that the engine bay and other various places will not have to be painted unless you chose a different color.
