Default Paint scheme for my car???

Any of you guys have good ideas of a good paint scheme for a 2001 WS6 trans am? the car is black..

i think its about time i do something a bit differnt, i have had the car for almost 3 years and i work at a bodyshop so i have the perfect oppurtunity to do it.

oh yea no stripes either i dont like them on these cars.. also im not painting the whole car, i just wanna add something to its current color

so watcha guys think? give me some ideas

I like the look of steel peeling back.

Like Chef said, get someone that can do true fire.. and do that from teh nose, up to about the middle of the hood, and have it wrap around down past the front wheel well's, a few spots of it like it's running back on the car would look sweet down the doors... Do the inside of the hood too, and if you are really enthuiastic, clear out the engine bay, and do that too.. that would be magazine material right there.

Eventually, I plan to do that to my car, but with green/yellow fire on top of the pewter. I got a rear quarter that the primer is checking on anyway, so when I finally get tired of that enough, I'll do the rest too.

All black. Tint out the windows, black-out whatever you can, and leave it at that. With the pro-stars it will look absolutely sick.

Like I said on NJFBOA, if you want a second color go for a grey/silver colored Black-Bird Stripe.
