Getting very close now - so what colour should she be?

[*Phoenix*]

We rana thread a while back, but came to no conclusion, this is it now ladies n gents...

She materialised over the past months on this very forum, so its only right to take this through to the colour too!

Any suggestions... would be greatly appreciated, I aint got a clue what would look best, so I'm open to all input and photoshop'd images... (the originals at the bottom if anyone cares to butcher her)

Thanks all!!! once we come to a successful conclusion, then thats the colour she will be going!


















and the original pic - current temporary primer: (many thanks to Focus for this great pic!)

i like the lighter blue myself only cause thats the colour of mine.some cars defo look better in certian colours but this looks great whatever its wearing.
how about white with one union jack streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeched out 7,8 inches wide off set from centre running the length of the car(over the top of corse).not being lazy just not clever enough to do it to your pic

Given the shape of the car, I think it would be well suited to a dark pearlised colour

Deep red pearl maybe??



(photo was originally blue, but I changed the hue)

Ash,

for completness throw on a few pics of greens black purples and silver and your old cascade would be very nice

- Im not going to comment - its your car you choose - that was the conclusion last time im sure - will look great any colour - try not to smother it in graphics is all Ill say

keep it simple and then change it each year is another option !!! - pick an interior scheme that will go with anything!!

keep going forward .. DAS

There was a Sag at my local dealer (Henley Heritage) in red pearl and it looked unbelieveably anazing.
I visited with a couple of mates (both new to TVR) and they were smitten too.
They've got a reasonable selection of different chameleon colours there, but that really stood out.

Something bright methinks

How about -

How about barbie pink - in order to maintain it's Q-car brief?

[yellow peril]

Bud.....if you have some time, please put a matching black roof on Ash's Monster.....would be interesting to see how that looks.

Bonnet is supposed to be Carbon Fibre.... didn't look right 1st time round so here's go number 2. Still not there, the roof looks like an old vinyl roof off a mk3 cortina.

I personally think that it would look great in Spectraflair Silver. It would suit the car and highlight the curves in the unique bodywork.

That my two pence worth........It may be wise to point out that I am in fact colour blind, so I may not be the best person to ask !!! (only red green and brown though)

Nice work bud!!!!

I was wandering, the bonnet will have multiple vanes along it to flow the stream over the roofline rather than into the bottom of the windscreen (which I wish could have been sleaker but that mod would have required tonnes of work... sooo)

Also on the front, it will have those carbon splitter-strake things, you know, like starting from the front and going up slightly, like triangles, thats to help stabilise her at full pelt...

Can ya work ya magic with these changes? thanks a mill!

[pwig]

I like white tbh.

[carl_w]

The yellow or the first red for me.

Have you considered TVR purple?

Stealth fighter matt black is available from the States. It's finish is more like satin than matt - looks really evil.

I loved the original cascade she was before, but I have a feeling the speeds I'll be doing wont do the 4k's worth of paint any good after one run... and I'd prefer touching up than having whole panels re-done... plan was to hopefully change the colour as and when funds permit, but it would be even better if we could have the one colour which pin-points the uniqueness of her....

Anyone good with photoshopping cascades, candy's, mattes?
