JPM paint jobs

[ibanez.shredder]

Hey guys
I need some opnion from some of you guys cause im having some trouble choosing a custom JPM style paint job for my new RG1570. I need your opinion on what you think looks best, not what stands out more. keep in mind that my RG will have a monkey grip, lions claw and a H-S-H config.
im tossing up between:

1. Ibanez JPM with white basecoat and black picasso graphics.
2. Ibanez JPM with black basecoat and green, yellow red and blue picasso graphics.
3. Mirra-chrome (chrome illusion paint, looks 99% of real chrome) with matt black picasso graphics.

Here are the pics for comparison. click on the pic to enlarge.

mirra-chrome sounds a little to gangsta for me lol (no. i'm not racist) but it sure looks cool. i like black/white the best, as its not overdone.

I would go with:
2. Ibanez JPM with black basecoat and green, yellow red and blue picasso graphics.


I like the original the best. Just like the one on "Rock Discipline".

Chrome.

but think of the maintenance needed if you choose mirra chrome dude. dirt, scratches would be clearly visible and unless you are certain that you would always clean your guitar, then chrome it is. if not, the black and white then.

[ibanez.shredder]

Yeah i suppose it would get dirty. But i wipe my guitar down EVERY time i use is so it should be okay. But incase you didnt know this is a special aluminium filled chrome illusion paint. So therefore it will be finished with a thick clearcoat so there wont be any horrible wearing, scuffing, errosion and oxidising normally associated with the JS10s and other nickel-plated guitars. Also the picasso grapic takes up a fair bit of space on the front so i could deal with it . You should see my Ibanez RG520QS in trans blue. It is ABSOLUTLY covered with scratces!
Yeah the white is my favorite
BTW could you please place a vote in the poll so i can keep track of what you guys think.

I've seen an RG on evilbay with the type of mirror finish w/ graphics like you said. It looked killer, but the seller was demanding a high price for it.

[ibanez.shredder]

How long ago was it? Did it have the JPM graphics? You wouldnt happen to know the item # would you?
Thanks
