+1!! Reventon matte will definitely make it stand out, but be subtle at the same time!

All of them sound real kustom, nothing like a shiny new custom paint job.

This is custom painted look OEM to me and you it look like you had the fake wald spoiler molded in why it doesn't flow with the trunk now. It need more of a drop also riding high IMO.

The blue on the S2000 picture is sweet... kind of reminds me of the Calsonic Skyline GT car.
