New paint job. It looks like the clear coat has lost its luster, so it definitely needs a paint job.

Alright, well you leave it, and just get a nice clear coat on it. Or better yet, brand new paint job, blue/chrome with blue engine accents. Either way it'll look gorgeous!

i like it how it is. a midnight blue with pearlescent wud look sweet. u cud even add a little white somehow, like do the same thing as the black n green, but do blue n white. ummm, as for the block, i'd say, do it in the same color. idk, IMO orange wudnt look good. its too miami dolphins for me...lol.
