Color's??? (What to do....?)
 
Didnt want to hi-jack the other thread....

I have been looking over the forums for several days now looking for this question but cant find anything similiar to it. So i thought i would drop the question in here. I own a 1999 Camaro Z28. Factory Pewter. Pic in profile (not the best pic). What my question is, is what color should the contrast color be? What i mean is, what color should I paint the calipers/strut tower brace/front license plate bird/ etc. etc.

Let me know please....

Thanks,
John Melamed

Yeah black would be a nice classy look

IDK.... I like how the black looks now but it just doesnt stand out at all. Its WAY to plain. When you look at it, its like BORING. How about like an anodized blue?

For my tastes, understated has always been the way to go...hence, I recommend black. Blue or red would look okay, but will definitely stand out on a pewter background. A dark charcoal would also work as an accent color...

yeh lawman brings a good point a dark charcoal would look pretty sweet also. i would avoid the anoidized blues.

Look up Steve's old 2000 SS for ideas. :hail:

Black with red accents. There is always room for polishing or chrome too, lol. :)
