OK, here is how I made my decision. I picked out my three or four favorite colors, went to the paint store and ordered 1OZ quantities of them (like $20 a piece). Then I had the body shop that did the repaint, spray some out on 5"x5" cards.

That made the decision very easy. Looking at pictures or little paint chips is not the same as seeing a big card of paint that you can hold up to your car...

Also, while you are at it, check out the PPG vibrance series of paints. They are like a HOK true pearl in looks, but about 10 times easier to spray and about 2-3 times cheaper. After looking at every red paint I could for about 2 months I finally decided on the vibrance cabernet 3 stage and I have been nothing but happy with it everytime I look at it.

PS I have seen a viper blue mustang and it looked badass.

Rattlecan Flat Black...then, like someone said in another thread, blow the difference on Booze and Whores!

Just Kiddin'. I like #2 the best but it is on a vehicle and easier to visualize.
