So in December I'll be repainting my Bird. Trying to decide if I should keep it the same color and have a black pinstripe the same size as my current stripes. The other color I really dig is Medium Quasar Blue. They stopped using it in 97 on F-bodies and I honestly can't see why. If I go with that then I'm thinking get another silver pinstripe down the side like what I currently have.

I've always liked that old blue, I vote change to blue if you're repainting it anyways.

Kinda what I was thinking. A friend though reccomended going with a more metallic version of my current color also, but I think it'd either look really awesome or just too over the top. With the blue I oculd add an exterior mod and still not push it overt he top.

I like the blue better, but I think i'd like to have more metallic in it. If I personally repainted my car, I have no doubt in my mind what color it would be, SOM (Sunset Orange Metallic) is by far my favorite on an Fbody.

If I had to repaint mine, I would have to choose that Electron blue from the C5 Zo6's, that was a sweet ass color IMO.

Well if you do go blue, you better have them paint the door sills and the underside of the hood.
