I think Laguna Seca blue would be badass, mainly because i absolutely love that color on M3's and i think it would look sick on your car with your brakes.
Another color i think would look straight ballin on your car is called Riptide Blue i think. Its a GM color ive seen on a few excalades, yukons and SSR's. its a nice dark blue, until the sun hits it then its a turquoisy green. i cant find a pic of it, but its a sick, sick color. if i ever repaint my rs, its gonna be that or something similar.
good luck with the color search, i cant wait to see the car!

i also agree with earlier posts to keep it white, i like your idea of the lexus white. keep her clean.

Keep it white, or maybe the Blue used on the Lexus IS-F

paint it chrome son! word to 50
real talk though. i suggest BMW Estoril Blue, ive never seen anyone paint their car estoril blue, people always paint it the laguna seca.
it would contrast with the project mus

I've never seen it before - it looks kinda like a white bugeye WRX. Or maybe it's a 2.5RS with a WRX hood - hard to say since it's debadged.
I'd stick with the white, and spend the money on getting tires that aren't too small for the wheels, but that's just me.

I'll most likely just paint it lexus is350 pearl white. Like I said, the car HAS to get painted. It's hard to explain but the painter who originally painted it can't get the paint to match, sooo that means I need to respray it. I like the white, ill probably stay white, but I was just seeing if there was anything else that I might like.
So thanks everyone but I pretty much found my color.

I can't picture it these colors but guys, I really don't want something with huge flakes and stuff. It's a subaru and my theme is all jdm, so a flake paint job just would not work. I was thinking just a nice metalic color, something that could match. If worse comes to worst, ill just paint the car the new lexus pearl white.[/QUOTE]
Cadillac tri-pearlesant white.... like the Sevilles. it has a little red and teal pearl to it.

Those chops above are close, you just need to use multiply blending on the layer or edge out the opacity by 15-20% to make it look more real (at the moment you're losing the reflections)..
