Your vote counts!!!
 
I wanted to know what you guys thought of the VW color cyber green. You know, that light green only available on Beetles. I was kicking it around for the color for my coupe. What do you think? I'm doing the car mint, whole panel swap, and yankin the motor to do the engine compartment, so any color is a possibility...

I am personally not a fan of the lighter colors, although there is Mustang in my hometown that is painted a light green. It has chrome wheels and does look pretty good. The light green is not for me, but if you like it, go for it.

I like Arctic White Pearl from a 96 Maxima. It is basically a mettalic white.

In my opinion, go for it. That color green is cool but if you were thinkin about painting it pink, that's another thing (lol) You might pick up some blonde hotties too! (lol)

Me personally, I like the bright blue that is on the Jetta's. I have been looking at that a lot lately. Seems like VW has some pretty good colors to choose from lately. There needs to be a program where you can scan a picture of your car and change the colors of it on the computer, like a landscaping program. Anybody know if there is a program out there like that, would definately come in handy.

Well it really depends, if yoy plan on having this projectr car in the family forever sure, if you ever plan on selling this thing for a profit or for another project no. For example, if everyone from this site went to go look at your car and it was for sale, mint, perfect in every way, I would say 8 of out ten would rather it be a different color and could effect their choice. I like the color myself, but for a week or two, not for the life of the car. It is like babysitting, it can be fun and all, but you know that at the end of the day, movie etc. the kids or kid are going home. Just my opinion...

Thank you, that is a good point. I do plan on keeping the car for a while, and if I get sick of the color I can easily change it. My best friend owns a body/speed shop and I do whatever I want there. So, I'm really not looking down the road in years, more like 12-18 months or so. I plan on totally renovating the car in a few years, but for now, I am looking for flashy. As you can see in my sig, the car has had a long life. So, it does need a lot more than paint. I just want it to look cool for now until I have the time to really do it right. Anybody else?

That green is ok but i like the dark electric bmw blue, metalic mint, light sea metalic, ford white with blue pearl, and the mystic chameleon type, the one that changes colors as you pass by it. Out of those i like the mystic and the bmw blue the best.
Ask yourself this. Is this a color your just think is cool, or is this a color you really want? Just food for thought.Good Luck!

I think the green would look good on your fox body. You should go for it. I personally like reds and silvers.

Green is good. One of my favorites is that bright Crashler lime green color. You would shurely be seen! Or how about big grin green? http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...rd/biggrin.gif
