Default What colour 3dr would you have........

If you could have any colour on a 3dr which would it be (with pics of possible)....

A mate of mine is a logistics manager for a large paint firm and will get me whatever colour paint I want for my 3dr....but I can't for the life of me decide and he needs an answer soon.

I do like the moody & hard looking colours...cars going to be a stripped out caged up road/track car. I am keen on a few colours but really can't decide

doenst have to be ford colour either....if you have pics of a car with a smart tough looking colour post it up or let me know paint code/colour name so I can find it

Cheers
Dan

Mint white one on standard wheels running a Gunship.

Something like this, but obviously RHD.

.

Love 3drs in any colour/spec on the whole to be honest...

does it cost big money to get the car stickered up like that? As I like the look of them and it'd go well as it'll be caged up and track ready....hmmmm

Also how many litres of paint for indie & outside & engine bay on a 3dr?

Cheers

There's one I saw at the shows last year that was orange with a yellow flip and metal flake. Sounds awful but looked mint, so non standard colours do work! How about mercury grey?

Black with white wheels, white cage, white extras, like I did my old one.





BUT if money was no object, id do a FULL Dick Johnson Shell Replica, so, err, Red.

BUT id only ever do that if it was a PROPER identical replica. Nothing gayer than cars covered in replica graphics but not even close to the real thing IMO

Diamond White, the only colour to have a 3 door in Anything non-standard looks shit unless it's a faithful touring car rep like the eggenberger or Brooklyn cars etc
