Midnight blue or Black?
Had a verizon truck hit me...and somehow there are no dents anywhere...just lots of scratches

Im 50/50 about staying black or going to a really deep midnight blue...wondering what some people on the board think

-peace

Majestic Blue is better because it has the sparkles.

Midnight Blue, if you're going to get the car painted..... get it painted something not stock.

Whatever man... ya know ya wished your car was majestic blue.... plus, blue will match your silver "SHIFT_RICE" banner sticker better....

Pmp-n8a, the midnight blue sounds good... I'm assuming its something that'll look black in certain lighting and a really deep blue in bright sunlight... I think that's a great idea....

Do it... do it...

So because you have some scratches on your car, you're getting the whole thing repainted? There has to be more to this story.

yah there are scratches along the entire length of the car...the entire roof of the verizon truck fell and just glided along....it was made of fiberglass so there was no structural dmg...just paint

its not like they're not gonna pay...they're lucky i didnt get hurt...or suing their asses...im sure a lawyer would love to get at them on this issue

whens the last time you heard of a roof falling on someones car

i dont know why there needs to be so much explanation but ok...

the roof of most box trucks are made of a fiberglass material...there were really high winds that day...and especially more on the bridge...probably in excess of 40 mph

i guess the wind just caught it some how and tore the entire thing off...im surprised i was the only person to pull the guy over...because it hit a couple of cars after mine...i was actually the second person to get hit by it and the only person to stop the driver

Majestic blue it looks black at night and during the day it sparkles more not to mention it stand out from all the other Silver, and Black cars on the road. I think Blue 5th gens have more character at night from a distance they look black but as you walk up to them you get the "Majestic" in the blue kind of creaps up on you! Only other Majestic Blue owners know what I mean... Zaino loves this color too!

i dont like the majestic blue...i dont really mean to offend anyone but when i see it i picture a guy in a mid-life crisis, that couldnt convince his wife to purchase a corvette or something....thats just me though...midnight blue is more of a color that plays with your head...is it blue or black
