I like that orange you made the other day, I think it will look awesome and would go well with a bronze wheel. But that black and grey combo would look good with a set of wheels I've got in my garage.

Well. Since Im going to end up redoing the wheels like everything, I can always make them any finish. Decisions decisions.
Orange I can see bronze wheels and a camel leather interior

That black and gray is awesome, but with more of a blue stripe. That looks purple to me in the pic. Black, and a popping electric blue against it, between the gray, would be nice!

Full on orange, as cool as it is,
makes me think more of the late 60’s early 70’s muscle cars.

Just my opinion!!

I can paint blues all day long. What I’m easily sick of is laser red.

The stripe color is actually the same color I used on The OG 94 cobra

I like how your 'test hood' is 50 times better looking than most shops' final products.

More time and material spent on stuff no one will ever see. You’d think Id learn after all these years but the ocd is too much to overcome

It's called 'integrity '.
And knowing that's likely the last time that area will need to be seen.
