Most people on here are not gonna like it because they go with the same things or the safe themes but it is clean and very nicely done.

Yes and no. If the entire car were the lime green, it would have an exotic car look, like a lambo or even a viper type look. Having the lime green as an accent is kind of disctracting. I like the color, just not feeling it on the net. Maybe in person it would have a better draw or appeal.

As for the safe themes, sometimes it's what looks the best. Black and pewter go well, red and silver or chrome go well as well. Just look at all the Riddler award winning cars, and most are mild colors, like blacks, tans, pewters, silvers.

Nice and clean. It's hard to get that kinda bright color scheme right.

If you did some badass wheels with some green accenting, I think it would tie everything together.

Please don't...IMO that may be a little too far.

I could be wrong though.
