    Candy Brandy Wine on the bottom and an Ivory White top would be bad ass too.

    Why is it, guys can buy or build a ride, but can't figure out what color to paint it ? Come on. For real ! During the build process, the final outcome is already in my head (color wise)( and all final details).

    Do you need someone to pick out the paint for your bathroom ? :eek::D Or should I get your momma to help you? Buck up, decide for yourself.

    There are some nice metalic browns out there, that all that caddy chrome and gold emblems would compliment well.........like 2008 chevy impala mocha bronze (brown metalic) or I have also seen a late model nissan or toyota (cant remember which)with a sharp lookin brown.
    .............or at least something in the tannish,pewter,brown tones.....somethin to give that caddy some more caddy class to go along with its sinister lookin attitude.
    (but something diffrent)

    Everything above the belt line in burnt orange metallic and Caddy off-white pearl on the bottom. Goes with white, black, or beige interior. Guaranteed to wow. The car is REALLY BITCHIN'!

    What a sweet ride, the car has such strong beauty lines. I would think a dove grey bottom with a ivory cream top would be clean. It would depend on what colors the interior will be. I am a champion for solid non-metallic colors for the sake of a clean look and easy to touch up or spot repair. All the flashy stuff isn't always needed when you have such an iconic beauty to start with. yes, I know I am a little conservative in this area. ~sololobo~
