does this color scheme work?

I actually think the white one is terrible. The way the stripe ends around the badge is not cohesive at all. It was done better in the Meguiar's car.

that color looks best with silver or black or some kind of metallic dark gray silvery color scheme in my opinion if i was you id just paint the interior pieces gun metal or phantom silver which is a dark silver with a lil luster but thats just my opinion

I just couldn't stand that fake plastic wood trim - personally I like it in red, although not sure if I'll keepommm
S. X x. Hg even still there's some imperfections (although you can't really see from the pictures)

Already tried it on an old army trunk I use. Thanks for the tips.

Three main vanishing points with the FRS body I can think of are. The fins down to the front of the rear wheel base. The under window stripe. The hood emblem. The hood should end in a arrow point though if I'm not mistaken?

X2, but sadly people are going to do what they want.

For exterior (since interior is all the same color across the line)


you need to find a color that complements the exterior color.


Considering you have a Hot Lava Orange, that leaves your options VERY limited.


Currently the only good accent color with orange is black. Silver and gunmetal as well since those pretty much go with any car.....


Everything else sticks out like a sore thumb.

Orange and green? yuck...doesn't go together at all.
orange and blue? does not go together.....
Orange and white? These colors can go together in some cases, but they're trying to out color each other instead of complementing each other on the car, with white winning the 'look at me!' contest....


Bronze MAYBE but its hard to tell.....

I agree the main colors to match lava ATM are the black and chrome. Black because it goes with everything. And chrome because it reflects. Gunmetal, I don't know if that would work? It would be a better choice than matte white obviously.

Sadly the green and blue are the complimentary colors to the orange.

I'll check on gunmetal/black to see.

Problem is thread is 3+ pages and just trolls posting about rice. There's got to be a way to get the white to work it's just a matter of what pattern (no one post a whiteout, I'll key you )

If you like it, you should do it. It is your car after all.

[gymratter]

just know if it looks like sh*t than more than likely your resale / car value will take a hit.

either way, GL on whatever you decide and post a pic when your done.

that looks more like an MS Paint job, than Photoshop.

if green and blue are the complementary colors to orange, then you have to find the right shade of each to complement the orange. The ones you used in that quicky photoshop job don't look right.

It's the correct shades. It's lacking lighting and shadow differences which is why it seems so much brighter
