Hey guys....a few months ago my car got keyed on both side of the vehicle, and now finally have the time to put the car back in the workshop for some modification plus to get the paint fix.

Car is currently NightHawk Black. Both Of the sides needs to be painted, but i was thinking of going for a paintjob. So what do you guys think?

Keep It Nighthawk Black ??

White with Blue Pearl??

Candy Apple Red with the bonnet black, roof black & trunk black??

Those are my option, but anything you guys can come up with and recommend will be great as well. :D

Also i got rid of my chromies, and got my black wheels with polish chrome lip now too...

I meant the whole car being white, with blue pearl. So you cant really see the blue pearl until you look closer at the car.

i love that lushous car, sooooo hot!

i think you should paint it, why not! be different and stand out from the crowd, if i were u id go either white with blue pearl or the red with black bonnet/hood/boot, BUT you need nice rims to match! and if u do decide to paint think about getting the whole car, it looks alot more professional!

just my 2c

Get the lip. It is nicer. I think the bumper replacement is a bit much when I saw it in person. It kind of conflict with lines of the car.

Personally, I think most of the Mugen kits for the Euro are ugly (don't mind the 06+ grille).

However, I don't think you can just do the front bumper. If you're going to do a kit, you need it all round.

Ultimately, what you choose to do with your car is up to you, but it all depends on how deep are your pockets (which includes insurance afterwards) and how paranoid you want to be about getting it scratched again... Fancy paint jobs are harder to match!
