RED is the way to go..

Although, I do like the white, but, , brake dust will be nasty!

Are you going to stripe the outside or add any color to the engine? Interior? Then follow through with the same color.

Yellow with your white, is a turn off..

Blue wit white, nice!

Just my opinion...and we all have them!

I went through similar thoughts, but then went RED...and it was totally the right decision for me. Your vette is a beaut, and WHITE to boot (you really should go red IMO)

Getting ready to paint my caliphers also tomorrow. My car is Navy Blue Metallic & thought of going to that color also. Like the red, but 30,000 others do to?
What do you think about NBM versus red?
