Picking a clour is a lot harder that i originally thought. If you want an original look, then stick with one of the colours that it came in.
I really like the original sky blue that the 1k came in, but its such a personal thing

I originally was going to paint mine the new metalic gree from the commodores, (same as ANGE), but then decided that its a too modern colour for my objectives. So now I am down to a silver or the original blue.

Try to keep to bright colours since dark colours came make a small car look smaller.

I still think that the baby blue is the best colour that they came in.

Try the original colour but in 2 pack youll never regret it as most K colors suited the Ks well. " pack will make it tougher and give it a slight plastic toy look
