Get the new panels and bumper etc sprayed in the factory WRB, then wrap the whole thing whatever colour you want. Heck, you could ever change colour every month.

For Tino, with some of his minions (read: credit cards), anything is possible.



It's true! Americans don't know what sarcasm is...

But seriously. Paint entire car WRB, then vinyl wrap it.
Even wrap it in something similar to Aston Martin light blue, to see if you like it.

With the WRC guards and overall tone of the car. Keep the WRB and perhaps give it some sparkle. It will make the car look like a factory special rather than a tacky show car. Look at the simplicity of how nice a plain (blue/red/black/white) jap car with the right wheels/stance and killer engine and drivetrain from the JDM tuner cars are.

What do you want the car for Tino? You're always going on about making it a track car, yet all your mods etc point towards a show car?

You do realise it costs upward of 5k to wrap a car dont you? And will never look like a paint job.

Nope. Didn't know that.

Although, spending 5k wrapping a car in baby blue, all to realize the colour looks shit, is better than spending 10k+ painting it, to come to the same realization.
