what colour should i paint my caterham

[the chosen 1]

at the moment the car is yellow and polished ali, but polishing the ali is a pain, ie no wash and go, more like polish it and the days gone. i have a few ideas 1, porsche gt3rs green as in the opening credits of top gear. 2, red bull colours as f1 car. yellow nose. blue body and some form of red and silver stripes. 3, or this colour

or do you guys have any other ideas.
thanks

I'd love to respray mine Quackers Green, so go the Porsche green route!

Mine is penis pink and so's my caterham

My Caterham race car is GT3rs green. Is it called Viper Green? Anyway, I am therefore biased, but incredibly happy with how it looks.

I also think it stands out pretty well.

Nope, just "green" in the brochure.

Renault Clio Sport Blue works well, see my profile pic.

Thats all well and good James, but I can I suggest RSA hue rather than R300 hue. The original hue was much nicer.

And try not to sell it this time.

Nissan's Midnight Purple

British Racing Green.

Kowasaki roulette green.

Brightest colour you're happy with, bright colours suit 7's. It's a happy go lucky type of machine, forget the drab Tintop blacks, BRG, and all the silver derivatives way waaay toooo boring.
Just my 2 pennath - plenty will dis-agree

I do want a bright colour, what do you guys think of the bike colour, it's the one I am leaning towards, but if I ever decide to sell ( only to upgrade) I would want a colour that appeals to many. Like the Nissan midnight purple but have a simllar colour for my work van ( when I get round to it)

You're just using the wrong polish. Use aircraft polish, they hardly ever clean American Airline passenger jets, and they always look shiny.
As much as I like Buggati blue, I still prefer the look of real metal.

You know you want the midnight purple. That, an aeroscreen and a set of anthracite Compomotive CXRs. Job done.
