well I am gonna be doing a partial respray this spring on my C2. I was thinking about going a little darker yellow that my Pastel Yellow and doing almost Speed yellow. What do you guys think. I know in the end I will amke up my own mind, but wouldn't mind some input from you guys

car now

I will post up pix in a few... my hosting site is down right now.

 

Wow, gutsy!

Speed Yellow is nice! How far off is Pastel Yellow? Need pix.

 

I will post up pix of mine as soon as I can. Mine has a full RSR exterior conversion. So the car will NEVER be stock.. so I am not worried about value dropping due to respray..... if anyone has a nice Speed yellow pic please post

 

If you are going to do full body respray, and love yellow, go with Fly Yellow (Ferrari). It is stunning in person.

 

Good move. Never loved the pastel yellow. It's just too pale.

I second what eric said. Fly yellow is a great color. I knew someone who had a fly yellow C2. Looked very nice.

 

here's a shot of a speed yellow car for reference.

 

ya the pastel wasn't cutting it for me. go fly yellow. or you can go carrera white so it will look like a proper RSR/race car.

 

well the good thing is that the color change is way cheaper than buying a Speed yellow car and doing all of these mods myself
My server is still down for my images. My friend did some photoshop for me last night!

 

I'd stay away from the pastel yellow. It makes the car look kind of slow.

What do you mean by "partial respray"? What aren't you going to respray?

 

Go with a custom Pearl Yellow.

phatGT2's:

 

I agree with you on changing the color, and I think fly yellow would be great. Why wait till spring, might as well have it ready for spring. A complete color change will take a little more time than a partial spray.

 

Partial spray = is that something that will go up against that rainbow 996 that keeps getting passed on ebay?

I like the speed yellow, or the fly yellow to be a little different.

 

cool. how much will the paint job cost? how much of the car will they paint?

 

keep as much OE paint as possible.
