I know it's not exactly the same but I had a customer ask me to paint their computer case in yellow / purple... decide for yourself how it looks:

I think it would look good buddy but you need to look through the different shades of purple tbh!

i was thinking a dark purple, and as im a girl, thought it would be more personal and different to black and mango.
how do i get someone to photoshop it? :) lol

i think it would depend on the shade of purple, and also which parts are actually going to be purple and which parts are going to be yellow . . .

think brown looks to bronzey and dirty? dunno lol
i suppose if i do some purple and hate it, i can change it to black? lol

If you're only doing the rims purple you could go down the funky powder coat route.

Shall dig up some more pictures of cases I've done in purples for you.

This is a colour called Purple Starlight, bought it from PBTP a few weeks ago.

smiths photoshop with the purple looks good imo ;)
especially if you were at a meet, looks well different
go for it if you like it as it's been said before it's your car and you will see it and drive it so it's only really your opinon that matters at the end of the day :D
oh and that starlight colour is a belter
HAPPY 100 POSTS NICOLE
