Paint Color Black or Red

I'm going to be painting my car soon, waiting for the front bumper to arrive, and custom fitting some headlights in it.

My car is currently Red and I thought about painting black, but I wonder If I should keep it Red.

any thoughts?

I'd recommend black, 'cause it seems like every MX-3 out there (mine of course included) is bright red. Black MX-3s are purty.

I think the black looks better in the pictures to match the headlights. BTW what type of headlights are those??

They're PT Cruiser Headlights w/Blackhousing

did you have to do any modding to get them to fit?

the bumper hasn't arrive yet, but yes there is modifications to be made, the size of headlights are a bit larger then the stock ones, those images are photoshoped, when all the stuff starts getting worked on I will keep a log and post the updates

I like the red/black combo. But if you do it that way, paint the hood and hatch black aswell.
