Default Help me choose a body color for my 89 Zilla

I definetly do not want to go with blue or yellow. I am leaning towards Black or Silver, but I was thinking that the silver may be a little overkill since my frame is silver. I will be cutting the fronts, I hate the "dumbo ears" look that the factory plastic gives it. Check my pics and give my your opinion, or if you know of any other colors that are avalable, im open for suggestions.

I saw one one Ebay a while back with dark blue fenders and a grey seat that looked pretty good.

I got a question, when you shave fenders....do you just use a jig saw or.....? how is it done? is there a template?

I have a link just for that. I personally found a coping saw to be a little quirky to use. An air driven cut-off wheel is what I have always used. I dont cut right on the line, but back off about an 8th of an inch, and use a hand file to take the rest down. This prevents you from gouging a perfect front fender.

Here is a link though

This is a very good buildup of a Zilla, they are pretty through and show you many tips to save time and grief.
