  • Second for wine red (if pbadad meant black over red.) The "Red Shad" Slug-Go color can be uniquely deadly on certain nights.
  • Metallic black looks pretty cool too. Createx has it in their Kustom Color line, or you could probably find the Plaid/Folk Art version locally; alternatvely, Rust-Oleum has it in a rattle can. Use of the rattle can might be easiest if you're just going with the solid color, but you should know that you really need to spray a clear lacquer coat over it before E-texing or you're likely to have pitting problems.
  • Last suggestion is Rust-Oleum ColorShift. This is an interference paint that really gives off a unique sheen over black paint. Ditto on need for a clear lacquer coat before E-texing...not sure why these paints affect the epoxy topcoat so much, but they nearly always do -- no matter how long you let them dry.
