Default New Paint Job, Opinions and Help needed

Hey guys, thinking about a new paint job for my box. Right now, its BSP, but unforgiving highways (i80 in norcal) have left me with some rock chips, and I think the toaster needs a new look. I want something simple, but unique, that not many people would have on an xB I've narrowed it down to:

1. Red (Probably RS1 tC red, or a Ferrari-like red)
2. Dark Blue (Probably Black Sapphire Pearl from the Lexus IS350)
3. Flat Black
4. Flat Olive Green

Open to suggestions as well.

Anyone know how much a solid color paint job would run?

I voted for red too. I never knew why they came out with the dull salsa instead of some really hot candy apple red.

Red would look HAWT, but if you are wanting something diff, then I think the flat green would be cool, but maybe two tone with the flat black(on top), and then a red stripe the separate the two colors or silver. just my 2 cents.
