    Default Opinions on colour scheme for painting

    Hey all.
    Going to be getting me caprice painted shortly.
    Thinking about going for the holden phantom black with Ice Silver Pearl in it.
    Also thinking about using the same bright silver on the car on the bottem where its orginally grey.
    Wondering on what every ones opinion is on this scheme

    if you want black consider panther mica as its an original VS color.
    would not muck with the two tone silver, leave it.

    id do the it in panther mica as well....the silver is an old looking color and as such makes the car look older.....best luck in what ever you do...............cheeers

    id do a solid colour, not the two tone thing, when i painted my caprice i was glad to get rid of the grey part at the bottom, as for colour black is nice... if you like washing your car every day, i went from tungsten to cherry black and now i struggle to keep it clean lol
    Going where no late model stato/caprice has gone before.... GAME ON!!
