Default Question!! - Body Work.. and color change

My car is almost comletely apart.

the engine and body are in different parts of the city, the interior is out, the subframes are out.

My Favorite color is black!!, and if you check a few posts below, you will see a black wide body that slows my pulse.

My car is getting some new sheetmetal,
The painter knows my fav color is black and sugested that it would be no problem for him to change the color...

Only question is.. Go black! Keep santorin! or do a custome Black Santorin Blend.

Default It's your car, do what you want :) ...

most people here will blast you for wanting a repaint, because at the end of the day, unless it's the type of paintjob where each body panel is taken off, people can still tell the car has been repainted.

I'm always one for unique, so a custom dark, dark blue blend may be really cool.

It will never be worth much. Besides, it will never be sold.

Custom black/santorin gets my vote.

Default you have more nerve than I do!

I wouldn't do it unless you can paint all metal, including the engine bay, etc. I would keep the same color to make things easier. What bodypanels? You going widebody? If I win the lotto my first call will be to rojo collision for widebody conversion!

2nd - if you're gonna do a repaint, may as well go with something nobody else has
