Man, I see candy color paint jobs with 20+ inch rims all the time over here in the bay area with the "camaro Boys"... I don't exactly agree with it... but they do tend to stand out and stay in the back of your mind but. I'd keep it som...

While i obviously am a fan of going different, especially with orange. I wouldn't do it to an original SOM car. But as far as it looking better and more unique i think it would.

Those "camaro boys" are all over youtube with their ugly cars with 22" wheels.

Are you sure its hugger orange? Looks like a candy color to me but then again I don't paint cars for a living.

Here's a Hawk I changed from SOM to Kandy Tangerine (Saleen Beryllium) a few years ago. It was cloudy out so you can't see much of the brilliance of the Kandy. It still looks great though.

Theres a local guy here in Buffalo that has his SS painted that Tangerine Color with a little bit of metallic mixed in. I'll see if I can find any pics. Its sweet though. Looks similar to that Formula on the first page but with more sparkle and not as Flourescent(sp) Orange, oh and not as dark either.

Wes' car isn't exactly Tangerine Candy but it definitely a Candy Orange blah blah sumthin or another.

I love Wes' car but I'd say keep it SOM if that's what you have originally. Now if your car was white and you were debating going to SOM or Tangerine, I'd say the Tang. Candy would take the cake!
