The color change would change your insurance?

Your insurance won't change. What would even make you think that?

Color on the title does not matter either. On my title the color says "none" since they couldn't figure out what it was.

As far as your Paint question, I'd go with the Puple pearl color that you have on your front clip with possibly the green color on the fenders and side walls. But not to light of a green. Don't want it to look to much like Barney the Dinosaur!! Best of luck with whichever color(s) you choose. Make sure to post pictures once you get it done!

You should go down and ask your DMV about it and see what they say. Ask for the paperwork and go over it with your dad. We painted my dads jeep some olive green.... His choice.... But it was silver before no problems registering it.

yeah that sounds like a good idea actually. i was thinking actually, now that you brought up the color. a sweet gunmetal grey would look nice with some metallic black two tone up to the top of the bodyline on the doors and fenders. also was thinking the same green i have with either, silver, black or desert tan up to the top bodyline can anyone PhotoShop these to give me a general idea of the outcome.
