Cheers Trevor.
I'll take that 2 cents from you and everyone else.

That way, if you don't like how it turns out, at least we won't ever have to listen to you complain about it publicly.


Laurie wont even talk to me about colors for the car. She's been listening to me for the last two years. THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT BABE!

Some serious logic in that idea.

I like the darker lincoln color. Fits a muscle car better in my non important opinion. Looking good!

You suffer for your paint Curtis!

But remember the lesson of BMF...sure the right paint color is obviously very important, yet imho the 360K+ page views is mostly due to them special stripes.

I agree with the consensus, the darker. The lighter is just to vanilla and bland for a muscle car. It's like painting your walls swiss coffee. (In real estate that's the safe bet for walls to please everybody)

Well, someone thought it was a good idea. Stormtrooper AR15



Back to the Camaro, I'd go with darker shade as well.
