I can't believe how all out I'm going either still way off being a track car. I was the same view about the front cage but I barely drive this on the road now anyway. It's getting sprayed red as I fancy going body colour now

I'm proper undecided on a colour?? I sort of decided red because I'd seen a red E36 with red cage, but they'd carpeted the whole car so the contrast of black vs red was nice. But mine is mostly red inside so a couple of people have said it might be too much? Plus to get it red I'd have to paint it and I'd rather powdercoat due to strength.
I was never happy with the finish the company did on my grey colour so I wouldn't get that exact colour but I canget very similar, or I kinda want it to stick out aswell so maybe white? Brakes are going red/white so could look pretty cool?
I wish red suited random 'loud' colours

Ah, I thought you had it all carpeted.

I think white could look abit cheap. But that's just me, never been a fan of white stuff, wheels etc

I say carpet it and go red

with that door bar (the bit you can see through the window), i'd personally go with black. i think it would look a bit odd in red.

Na sod chrome, think I'm gonna go anthracite, black is a bit boring I think. Anthracite is still dark but with a nice metallic flick too it

Got my Astra Estate for that Cole

Can you get powdercoat to match paint? I just think paint is going to mark so easy?
