Color schemes

I always like to have a color scheme with any vehicle I've modded. Lookin for opinions! Im either getting my SS in Black or Orange(not avail yet but Im holding out hope for next year) So lets just say, my car is black. My last truck I went with Black and Red and really liked it. Im also thinking about Black and Orange, Black and Black or Black and Red, again. Let me know!

I've seen a lot of Black and Red, but think Black and Orange would be more interesting.

Black on Black for the interior is too boring for me personally.

I have a Black SS/SC w red interior. I think it looks the best personally. It matches everything perfectly like the black, satin, and red colors even in the stock gauges.

I think black and red is the easiest to do since, well, its a factory option. I tried doing orange once in my s10 but it wasnt a good orange, I would need to spend a decent amount to get the GM colors in a can but no biggie.

I suppose the orange would depend on if they came out with the SS in Orange, then I would definitely do it

I vote black w/ orange! I don't think anyone's done it yet so you'd be the first! I'm doing dark blue w/ orange myself.

i'm going to go with black and orange for the sake of the poll. it even works awesome as a 2 tone paint scheme, from what I've seen...the black with a sunburst orange above the body line below the windows looks awesome.

I'm trying to (slowly) do mine in black and blue. metaphorically representing the hurt egos of the unsuspecting hothead friends I have (mustang, ss/sc, eclipse, and camaro) when I take them to the track next summer when I go turbo

so far though i've only succeeded in some engine bay work, painted calipers and hood\trunk struts...and the blues don't all match perfectly yet (mostly due to different finishes\types of covering...some are anodized, others paintbrushed, others PCed)

gonna go to a buddy's leather guy to get my seats re-covered next spring, to have custom blue\black seat leathers.
