Default T/a viper steel gray, som or vette yellow?

Ok my car got hit by a deer. I am changing the color it is pewter now. I am thinking viper gray steel, sunset orange, or millienum yellow. Any pics of trans ams these colors would be great. What do you think? I am putting a firehawk hood on the car as well!

I say go with the yellow because you only see a shade of yellow on the CETA but not like te vette shade of yellow. It would look killer especially if you have the right wheels with it.

Another vote for gray steel. There are yellow T/A's and there are SOM's out there but the gray steel will stand out more. Gray all the way!

imo there are sooooo many gray cars on the road, and it isnt that different than what you have. getting yellow or som would be a bigger, more new car change, and stand out from the other cars more.

and som looks really good so i say do that. or the new corvette bunrt orange would probably look even better on a firehawk.

i'm biased towards SOM, BUT i actually saw a millenium yellow WS6 with gun-metal colored C5 Z06 rims...it look astonishingly good. i'd say you can't go wrong with any of those colors.

I would say yellow....SOM is a factory color and would make it seem like a WTB if you you went that color. If your going custom...go custom!

As much as I love SOM, if I was going to do custom paint, then I'd pick a custom color. I voted for VSG in your poll...


Quick Reply: T/a viper steel gray, som or vette yellow?
