Wow, that's a tough one...I think the current orange look is killer, but I'm not wild about the yellow headlights with the orange turn signals. in my opinion, go all black with yellow lights, and get some clear turn signal lenses you can put a yellow tinted clear on to match the head lights, or go with the orange centers on the speedlines with the normal clear headlights and turn signals. either way, I still love the car, looks awsome.

The Speedlines in black with the chrome rims look great! Go with Yellow Aero mirrors to match the calipers.

Of course, the orange is unique.

So my vote is.....









GET A SECOND CAR!!!!!!

Change the Orange to Green if you're bored with the former, imo.

The wheels are on. And they are staying black. Bye-bye orange...

Looks hot, ilko. I don't think you could go wrong either way. But if you are keeping the wheels black, I think you need to go back to black mirrors, IMO.

Yep, mirrors and roll bar will be painted black next week most likely... Orange graphics are also going away.

Darn, I'm too late. Say it ain't so! I have always been a fan of your orange scheme. Now you'll have to change your Agent Orange Avatar title.

Ilko, I think black is they way to go. You will like it once its complete! I would maybe leave the roll cage painted orange. Looking forward to seeing it in the future.

Black looks great. One nice thing about these cars is the many different ways you can set them up. I'm already thinking about the next scheme for mine although I'm going to stick with the orange rs tribute for awhile.

Hi - I liked the orange - v nice. But black is popular for a reason. It looks fantastic.
Absolutely paint the mirrors. You made the right choice.
Take care.
