Paint Shops & Interior Trim

[Cammy]

My thoughts so far on the makeover are the following:

Scandal Green top shell & aerofoil, Black tub & wheels. Rollover bar is already black.
CF front spoiler, maybe CF mudguards.
Interior seats re-trimmed with green inserts to match with centre tunnel & rear panel done with CF. Also really like the CF steering wheel. Top sill panels need to be stripped and re-trimmed also.

I've already stripped back a lot of the bracketry on the car which will all be shotblasted and powder coated black.

This should keep me going for a while.

Oh, I nearly forgot, I've got the engine to fix

For a really extreme look, why not go for a chrome/shiny bare metal finish ?

Alternatively, matt black would look very menacing (in a batcar sort of style) but possibly not that safe if you are driving in low light, as no-one would see you!

Hope you found the source of the oil leak on Saturday ?

PS The scandal green would work well, or the dayglo yellow colour of Gareth's Caterham and would be my choice if I owned one.

Curiously black is used on all training aircraft as it offers better visibility, dawn/evening might be dodgy and night lethal...

It would look awesome though

For an unusual paint effect how about:

A guy put it on his Evo and it is certainly an unusual effect, although it was not my cup of tea in the right colour it may look a lot better.
