Just wondering why you want to paint over the burgundy? As you may have seen, 77gp Jerry made his "purple passion" 7th gen really stand out. I know it's not exactly the same color. But still.

However, I can see how the burgundy might limit you for exterior graphics and such.

If you really want a change of color, I'd say maybe white or silver would be good choices. Don't go black or red. There's too many black and red ones out there already. With white you can do almost any complimentary color you want, and it'll look good. Like Keith's white and orange combination.

What kind of plans did you have in mind? It helps if you make a "master plan", and work towards it in stages as funds and time come available. That way you don't get stuck in the position where you can't do something because you'd have to undo all the work you did.

i once wanted to change my color to silver, but now i wouldn't change it for anything. I'ts great subtle and rare. The best way to stand out i think.
