I need some advice on what color to paint my car
In a few months im gonna tear my car apart and get it painted.I pretty much had my mind made up painting it bright yellow with white stripes,and then my girlfriends dad who owns a bodyshop and is gonna be the one doing all the body work and painting it suggested that i get it painted hugger orange with white stripes.I think both paint schemes will look good but i cant make up my mind on which one i want.Any advice or pics will be appreciated.Other plans include an LS1 6 spd thats sitting in my garage and a 4th gen interior.Thanks.

I've seen a few pics of yellow f-bodys on here, but I don't think I've seen an orange one.

orange with black stripes are a terrible look for these cars. if you want stripes the only one that looks good is blue and white. i would stick to the solid orange or another dark colour they look the best!!!

I personally like a white camaro with red heritage stripes.

I wonder how orange with white stripes would look. I don't think I've seen it done before but picturing it in my head sounds pretty good to me.
