    if you have alot of cash to splash go a full color change like the acid rush or do what psychotic-angel said go factory and add like a f%$k load of pearl to it. but if you have a heap of cash go any of PPG vibrance colors a mate of had a car painted in the PPG "O SO ORANGE"witch is like the XR5 orange with green vibrance added to it and it flips soooooo well :cool:
