What do y’all think of these more muted and pastel colors for a 914?
Playing around with the visuals some and thinking either of these two vintage Mercedes colors could be handsome.... I am fully prepared for the slings and arrows that may be forthcoming for asking about Mercedes paint code so have at it.   |

QUOTE(808 WRX @ Aug 7 2020, 02:52 PM)  Toyota has a solid grey (no metallic) that looks good, its called "cement grey" AKA "Road colored". You disappear into the background in low visibility situations. Not good in a 914. With how hard they are to see, I think they need to be a really bright color. Something that stands out and attracts attention. Red Yellow Orange Bright acid green Purple Something that can be seen easily in any light. |
