I like, but I think it needs black wheels with the same colour rim.

Ahh Benny owes me a few digs, although I'm sure he's only teasing!

I only did it for a laugh, to teach myself plastic spraying, it's going the same colour blue as Porsche use on their GT3-RS white/blue combo eventually.... but I do agree, it needs some more dayglo accents to tie it up, something to think about when I go blue.

 :happy2:

.... :signLOL:

Yes, it also shocked me to read that Benny didn't like it.

Is it hi-viz/fluorescent yellow, or just the photography?

Fluoro yellow indeed Robin.

Post by: J5BWS on April 27, 2009, 05:53:47 pm
I like it, might want some Brawn style stripes on the bonnet but that'll probably look OTT!!?

The grill, the 'theme' or the car??

Well it's certainly original and what some may describe as "interesting", which is always open to interpretation.

The Porsche blue will look much better.....[he said diplomatically]
Title: Re: Totally Brawn'd my ride....

ha ha - I know what you mean RR, give it a few weeks and I'll be bored and have gone blue.

Looks brilliant Tony!

If going for the fluoro yella, I agree with others who have suggested other yella bits needed.

So how about a fluoro yella vinyl roof?

With "22" in black on it? :grin: - That's taking it a bit far but a laugh.

the grille. but if you do other stuff to it im sure it`ll blend in better. it just doesnt flow atm

Post by: Alexander on April 27, 2009, 06:20:34 pm
think it looks brilliant!would look  even better with a Brawn GP sticker on the front side of the bonnet in line with the headlight if that makes sense!
Title: Re: Totally Brawn'd my ride....
Post by: tony_danza on April 27, 2009, 06:56:38 pm
Hmm, might see if I can get some thin tape and run a pin stripe on the wing mirrors just above the indicators.
Title: Re: Totally Brawn'd my ride....

I wasn't sure at first, but once i scrolled down and saw that Benny doesn't like it, then my mind was made up it's a resounding yes from me.  :grin:

You need another line next to it, so no-one parks their backside on it :signLOL:

I strangely like it though. Possibly need some more yellow elsewhere to tie it in as it looks a bit lonely there. How about painting part of the Alcons yellow?
