im real big on art and i'd say that color combo isn't too appealing to the eyes it's all about color contrast but either way it's a clean car i'd say if you went with that color make the wheels white or black even to compliment the cf hood

I don't see the color scheme being a perversion of anything and can actually see how it can be appealing for some. It's got the soft with the hard, the innocent body color with red hot wheels (tools of locomotion and mayhem) so I can appreciate it. Some people also see colors differently or are even color blind or can only see one particular portion of the color spectrum so just you can't just go by color schema. You have to take in the shape and then the context and then the driver. You keep stepping back further and further and further to get the bigger picture.

like your comment and very true by the way well at the moment im in between 2 color white but a satin white just dont like the fact that it will get dirty fast or 2 color shift paint which will merge both the my enginebay and exterior colors of purple and teal
