Default Don't Know what Color to Paint my Jeep Cherokee?

Hey guys. I'm getting my Jeep cherokee painted(professionally) this weekend. The only dilemma I'm having is choosing a color. I know you guys say personal preference or whatever, but it'd be nice to see some pics of your guys' rigs so i can get an idea of what i want. I'm going to mod my jeep to be a trail runner, if that helps at all. Also, it's a '91 two door. Pictures and links appreciated.

If its going to be a trail rig and you're willing to pay the money to repaint it, I would recommend to put bed liner on it. It will cost you a lot less than a pro paint job and it will last forever. Monstaliner makes a great product and you can get it in a bunch of different colors. You can roll it on yourself. I think its a waste to repaint if its only a trail rig, just my .02$

Somewhere between candy apple and forest green. I also like a dark metallic orange I didnt like it until I saw it on someones cherokee and it looked sweet.

That thing is kickass. My only dilemma on color is the deal that my Cherokee's a two door. Colors really seem to look different on those. >

Paint it root beer! Another kick *** high metalic paint color!!! Or a deep red, like a candy apple.... However, if you're going into the bush with it, which you should be, then I wouldn't get too fancy with the paint, you'll just end up scratching the **** out of it.
