OK, I am not looking for opinions to shape my own...Im just interested in them. So what do you all think of this color on a sports car / sports compact...anything thats not a tractor or truck...

Caterpillar Yellow...you know the color....dull, almost matte...kinda dark. I want to hear some opinions...then I will post pics of an experiment I am working on....

+1

There are plenty other yellows, I think at least, that would be a better choice.

yep, real CAT paint is on hand. Bronze paint will be used in this scheme as well....i think the two together will change some peoples minds once they see it.

One it looks like shit. Two BRE never raced 240sx's . Do not paint your car BRE style. That's a 1600/2000 roadster,510/610 240Z thing.

And BRE never raced 350Z's. In other words painting a 350Z the BRE color scheme or design scheme would look hokey.

Now since Nissan did paint 350Z's in a factory yellow the catapillar yellow might work with it.

Though remember you have a 240sx in your sig and you did not state which car was getting painted.

a model car was getting paint, thats it......love my black 240sx way too much to paint it cat yellow. and while I like the cat yellow/bronze combo, i think id put that on a peterbilt truck. Maybe ill do the BRE color scheme on a peterbilt truck too!

If you're not painting your S13, then why did you post this crap in Chat?
