Noticed in the Stillen catalogue that they had a custom painted blue Max with the aero kit painted gold. It looked like a pretty nice contrast.
I realize this is totally personal taste, but I like to do things on the SUBTLE side, without drawing too much attention to my car for gawdy effects. Looking for opinions, therefor on OPTIONS for a cool yet perhaps elegantly understated combination of my y2K sterling silver mist with ............ ? colour for the aero add ons. Would the contrast look OK and if so..what colour would best give it that certain special touch..in your opinion?? or is it just best to not risk cheapening the car, and going instead with a straight sterling silver match???

It hearts your eyes if you keep starring at it,

is that a Altima in the pic?
About bodykit painting I personally would just go with the factory paint color.

"Is there an oblem, Proficer?" HIC!



I'd say, stick with the factory body color. I think body kits should blend in with the rest of the body, so as not to look like an accidental afterthought. IMHO.

I remember those old 1984 Trans-Ams and IROC Z's had silver or gold kits on them, but I don't think that look would do the Max justice. I would stick with factory color to blend in nicely.
