    RS colour change

    Well my RS is meant to be Bright yellow but thought I might repaint the wheels and re do the graphics to white/blue. Need your help folks what say you!

    was going to do a poll but don't know how to

    I don't know....seems like every clone that was built in the 70s and 80s ended up white with blue, so even though it looks good it seems a bit done to death for me even if it's on a real one...but what the hell - if you're not repainting the right colour yet then you may as well choose the colour combo you like the best and to hell with the originality pundits (jeez am I saying this to you?)!

    But I do think the graphics need replacing as they are a bit untidy and the wheels could do with a paint as I have noticed they are a little untidy too (sorry).

    BTW - before you ask...I don't have the Carrera RS graphics set up as they would be a bitch to tidy up artwork for. There were some available locally for a while but I have seen them and they are ****. Best to buy some from OS that are right and then if you need help to fit them I can lend a hand (as long as you're not breathing down my neck as I would be liable to stuff them up then ops: ).

      i agree that blue / white seems to be the colour that everyone uses and is "boring" even as original.

      I like the red / white better but why not try Green. you hardly see any in green and they were original colour. seeing yours should be yellow anyway why not experiment?

            Go back to yellow, viper green and black or go with Hugh's suggestion..

            I don't know why but I'm very partial to green

              Clyde,

              Given your incredible dedication to originality on the Targa I sense the wheel decal thing is just a frustrated cry for inspiration before plunging into a body off respray back to bright yellow...either that or Ive eaten too much chocolate tonight !!

                If Andrew is right I would suggest Green script and wheels on the yellow car... Looks great!!!

                    The colour change is only temprorary and applies to wheels and decals only


                    Car will definately be going back to yellow if paint is applied!!!
