I am going to practice my hand at the DIY paint job over the winter on the old hood, but when Spring rolls around, what colotr should I go? My daughter and wife are all about the blue with gold rims......keep in mind it's a wagon......while black just looks sweet. It's already mostly factory redish.

WRB doesn't seem to look right on older gen. Legacys.

I voted for the red.

Going with black since you live where it's cold. It gets too hot here in the summer to have a dark car. I would never vote for Ruby Mica cause I've already had that color for so long - I guess I'm tired of it :)

I vote for none of those options... If you're going to DIY, at least have some real fun with it.

If not voting for one of those, what would you suggest. I dont want to go too funky cause the wife will kill me.

What? WRB + gold isn't funky?

I really like the Evo MR grey:

Any more pictures of that evo grey? Is it really dark? I'm just wondering.. cause I'm going to paint my JDM BD rims soon.. and want them closer to the stock color.. but.. need to find a paint code close.. or spray can close.
