Would love to see a black/white theme. Like the Panda AE86.

I cant believe nobody has mentioned the Gulf livery! The single most iconic livery to ever grace the curves of a car. Worn originally on the Ford GT40, it was the colors worn during one of the biggest, most expensive automotive grudge matches of all time between Ford and Ferrari. Ford's gt40 reigned supreme and dethroned Ferrari at the 24 hours lemans , as promised. Definitively, one of the most iconic points in automotive history.

Thanks for your input! Do you have any specific thoughts on how to style it, or just the black & white colors as a general tribute to that delivery car?

That is an interesting idea but we want to make something original. Seems like the Gulf livery isgetting over-used lately. People putting it on cars with no connection to Gulf.

So maybe there is a way to pull design inspiration from it without totally recreating it? Discuss.

I personally like the black bumpers, doors, and maybe the hood.
Like this picture (I linked it because it's huge)

Or the "original" panda style,


I could've sworn a member had a panda style FR-S, like the AE86 in the 2nd pic, but I can't find it right now.

I'm thinking about the old BAR divided livery. It was a Honda car but one side was the 555 blue and yellow that also sponsored Subaru's WRC.
