Have you ever painted a car before. That would be a very expensive paint to start with. If you were to mess up you would just cry.

Personaly I'm not a big fan of the 2 tone paint job. Too cal-look...

when i said two colour i didnt ment that the two colours will be in different parts...
you paint the whole car in a colour and you then repaint it like three times another colour.this give you the feeling that another colour might be hidding below the one you actually see.

I won't mention my first choice because I don't want anyone to copy.

But, Choice 1.1 for me would be Fresco Green Metallic from the current VW selection (Passat, maybe others). I hope I spelled it correctly.

I have to agree what some else said earler (sorry didn't catch the name , but you know who you are!) , go with a colour that matches the personality of the car . Also , may I add , it should also match the personality of the owner ( I think both personalities , when you really look at it , will be very similar) . I know that I have my personal favourites when it comes to the colour I plan on chosing for my next project (after Mrs. Axl says its all right), but it seems the colour I want changes almost every single day , or depending on my mood , or after I see a really cool paint job , etc. You just have to pick a colour that you are going to be able to live with .
