Help with the Beast's new clothes
the Beast is almost ready for a paint job. I'm looking for color/graphics suggestions.Any ideas, pics will be appreciated.I will post a line work for you graphic artist out there that would like to try your hand @ this.
These are my thoughts right now: 1. No Bright reds. The car will be street legal and I guess will attract plenty of unwanted attention. 2. no more than 3 main colors I guess that's all.  with spons.  take a stab at it

your design.. just color change.. Maybe the orange a little more suttle.
I like the look similar to gulf colors. I like your original though..

I like the idea of taking the golf colors, warm them up a bit and use them in a different (modern) graphics. Maybe use modern camouflage pattern using Gulf derived colors!

The bad thing about a loud design is that it attracts a lot of attention. The good thing about it is that it attracts a lot of attention, and you might not get hit by somebody in a Kia.

Id love to see these colors on a 911. Possibly even with the exposed rivets on the flares
This is a spyker

the Beast
phot cred to cudabnu
 Yes, I am kidding. So, is that a taxi cab light on top? Maybe just stick with that theme. --paint it like a taxi cab. . .urban stealth.
