Well you can choose any color from here:

As for the color, i think white would look really good on a gg coupe w/ blue brake calipers. You can get those blue extended lugnuts that some people have too. That would look hot.

How long would you say it took in total? And is the paint you bought as orange-ish as the pictures make it look?
No i think it was just a little orangeish because it wasnt fully dried. Here is a pic that does it good color justice I think:



I cant tell there is orange in there at all. It might have been the flash of my camera or somethin i dunno. It took me a total of about 3 hours.
