Default opinions on color??

well im a painter,and i just stripped my ws6 to paint it and was goin with the new vette atomic orange with the black bird in the hood in tru fire but i think that i would get tired of walkin out to an orange car every day.. so im thinkin about goin with the cadillac pearl white with orange tru fire bird in hood and orange emblems and accents with chrome wheels instead of black on the orange and black what you guys thinks?

hmmm, i think you'll get real tired of seeing orange emblems. Ever consider getting the blue like the new zr1's have than get black blackbird stripes..now that would be sex right there ...but that would take a lot of guts to do because you never know how well it will turn out on a ws6..i dont know just trying to throw out some unique ideas haha. But also you could do the pearl white with stainless accents, a guy with an ss did it and it looked amazing. Here's the color i was talking about, sure you have already seen it

I think the atomic orange with the other things would look real good.
