    Picked up a mark2 maritious blue vtr.

    I think i've been down most modded routes on my old car. Now i'm wanting to go down the craig180 route. But not orange.

    Wanting a colour that clashes but doesn't look tacky.

    Craig nailed it with the orange and black.

    What do you guys think will work with maritous blue? Upto now i can only think of a light babyblue.

    I've thought of limegreen, bright yellow etc, but think its too much of a clash and will look tacky as.

    Areas to be this different colour:
    Wheels, Showcage, Calipers, Chevrons.

    Any ideas?

    Pictures coming in a sec. x

    Imo white is the only colour that goes with that shade of blue, or black

    Check out Harv's progress thread (goto my sig link and he's in the contents bit at the top)

    he has done some photoshops of mad colour'd alloys to go with his car same colour as yours
