    I agree !

    When i decided to paint my VX two years ago i was highly interested in the autum cooper of the infiniti FX-35 i,but the RED/BLACK interior doesn't match at all
    Dakar was just the begining.

    Hmmm, perhaps he could use that video for the Insurance Company if some of his toys get stolen.



    The Copper color is okay, but I think "CHAMPAGNE" (aka GM's "Gold Mist Metallic" found on the Cadillac line) is truly an elegant color and would look awesome against the contrasting cladding.

    I used to want to find a VX and promptly repaint it GM's brazen orange metallic...but now I'm thinking House of Kolors tangelo pearl; I'm positive that nobody has ever done a VX in that obnoxiously bright color. It would scream look at me even more than my proton already does...hooray!

    There was a lady in Moab about 4-5 years ago, who had hers painted copper.
    Looked great and matched her hair perfectly. Can't remember her name!
    Found her...WyldWeasel...few shots in her gallery

    If I could find an Astral on the cheap, I'd paint it 'Blazed Peacock Mica'. That's the sky blue that was offered on JDM.

    I really like the matching grill. The matte hood insert with scoop looks good too.
    Not to mention the 914. I used to have one too... Nice.

    I think my repaint colour of choice--when the rock chips start to outnumber the mica flakes--will be that metallic olive that they did all the Jeep Rescue concepts in. It's about a pantone 574 I think:

    I think it'd look amazing with the black cladding.

    Don't let vt_mav hear you talking about turning one of his beloved foxfires into a dragon. I'm not sure his heart to handle that.

    If I had to choose

    I love my Proton but always was dazzled by the paint that changed color depending on angle and light. Very expensive though
