    My opinion... There aren't very many colors that the VX wouldn't look good in...

    I think said and done people would be surprised at how good it looks in that color.

    That being said... Not the color I'd choose

    i saw a pickup in a similar color the other day.. thought to myself.. that would be a sweet color for the vx! but your vx is all sorts of pristine from what i can tell.. get one with a crap paint job and then bring it to life as the green machine!

    I'm with Techy-D. If you DO paint it that color green then do some flat black strobe stripes down the pillar where the VehiCROSS emblem is (what is that the B-pillar...C-pillar?) like some of the old Mopar's. That could be pretty hot.

    I'm wanting to paint the top itself black.
    Also keeping the hood insert black.
    That way it will take a little away from the Brightness.

    I'm learning how to paint,
    so all I'll have in it is the paint cost.
    (& my time...not worth much )

    My inspiration;

    It's close to one of the "25 limited" colors offered the final year in Japan - the JDM color is more of a "green fly" color though.

    Thumbs up

    Absolutely...

    But think about adding some bright orange in there somewhere, maybe a grafix kit, a'la Coastie or something...
