Why not split it, the darker on the bottom, lighter on top and fade one to the other. I'd bet it would drive people nuts trying to figure out the color??!!

How about something in between these colors and with pearl added... ???

With pearl added to the Nepal it might be quite badass... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Racing Dynamics 9.5/17 and 8.5/17 they are from a early 930 turbo car. I'm working on getting some Fiske wheels for the car now.

Paint the cockpit, door jambs, and trunks in one color, and the rest of the car in the other..

you can't go wrong with either choice...


Bob's pic makes a VERY STRONG argument though!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/drooley.gif)

for some reason I thought that car was tangerine though... shows how much I know... it looks more like your second pic... maybe my vision is jacked though... either way... whatever BIGKAT's pic is... do THAT!

I have a tangerine flared car and love it however, I really prefer Nepal, I think it falls inbetween the red of tangerine and the orange of signal. Nepal would be my choice.
