Hey man,
Ironically I was standing at the mill last night working on my solid rear kits and you popped into my head. Wondering how you were doing....sounds like your progressing to near final stages with your car now.
My opinion - if you like the color then go for it. You are the only one that needs to be satisfied with it. I am HORRIBLE when it comes to colors and visualizing what a specific thing would look like.
Just got done painting a room for the wife at the new home and I brought her in about 4 times and said to her, "Are you absolutely sure this ugly azz color is what you want this room to look like. Please tell me so I do not have to waste my time doing the whole thing only to have you say you don't like it." She kept saying that she liked it and I thougth it looked like crap. Until of course I was completely done and gave it the second coat - then it all came together and looks really good, even to me. She just laughs at me and said see - trust me.
So if I ever paint my car...I will probably just tell her to pick a color - maybe I am color blind or something. but I never have a hard time seeing those orange deer during hunting season!
Go for the color if it is what you like. I think it will look good. But I am fond of white myself. Always looks clean, even with rubber all over it after a long day of racing.
