Looking at various restored classic cars can give you all KINDS of ideas for paint color

A few years back we had someone from the Eugene contingent that had a custom painted S.

It was metallic "Raspberry" color with metallic "Blackberry" top, hood and trunk lid:

I like the purple too. If it were me I think I'd stay away from the extreme 'flake', I don't think a real showy paint job looks that good on our cars. I did mine a gray similar to moonrock and added a bunch of purple and blue flake, it looks nice but now I'm thinking of having it redone w/out the flake and just going w/a deep clear finish w/maybe a little pearl. I think it would look a little cleaner on a DD or weekend warrior. If you going to show it then maybe it'd work out w/all the sparkle.

That body kit is about the worst thing you could do to an FD.
