Geeting flack from some friends about my color choice. Your opinion? Remeber this is going to be a rally car, with tags for some DD use.

Highlighter Neon Yellow(actual color is called Wild Chartruese)

This is actually more what it would look like(white wheels and all)

Since catching flack I’ve also chosen a second option, I’ve dubbed Neon Nogaro Blue, a custom single stage mix. Nothing to show you as I don’t have a color swatch yet. It’s basically Audi Nogaro Blue with a neon tint. Abusive to the eyes.

Headlight internals, wheels, roof vent are white. PD spoiler is going to be white/carbon(pure carbon spoiler painted)

Just want to see what majority public thinks.

I know the Chartruese doesn’t have a UV protectant in it, so it will fade from the sun over time… Other than that, I say go for it!

Yeah no UV inhibitor. It’s a single stage, so luckily I can touch it up fairly easily when needed. Car isn’t pretty to begin with, so I’m not overly worried about blending paint

Neon yellow or whatever the color name is, because it will look better with all the white parts

I vote for Neon Yellow and if it chipped, can be touched up with highlighter.

I vote stick with the yellow. It stands out, meaning it’ll be able to showcase your work and fabrication better because it’ll get more views.
