Back in 2006 I painted my Lotus 111R in chameleon colours from Green/Orange and it got a mixed response to say the least. Some loved it and some hated it a bit like Marmite! People say RAW Motorsport inspired Lotus?

Now Lotus are to bring out Chameleon colours in similar colours just wanted too know what you people think? see the links below.

I saw an Elise SC at Llandow in the chameleon paint earlier this year.
Sorry, I didn't like it all.

Have to agree with Tipper, saw an Elise SC in Prism Green and it looked hideous!

I'm afraid I have to agree that the flip-tone green colours didn't look particularly good on TVR's and frankly look hideous on Elige's.

The mild flip tones which work on Elise/Exiges are the metallic paints like starlight black, krypton green, ice blue and the arctic white tones where the flake in the paint looks great in the sun. I always wanted to have my S2 repainted in the Maserati White (Fuji Bianco IIRC) which is a metallic white with a slivery grey fleck in the paint.
