Until you start accumulating small animals attached to your front bumper where your turbo pulls in air.

That might attract some attention wink

Oh no way... Ferraris should be red.... Only red... But any fast curvy car can be yellow. First car I every helped restore was a yellow 57 chevy. I myself would go with a flat yellow with black wheels and spoiler/roof and tinted lights and windows. but only 2gb talon.

Kidding of course! tongue

I like it. Simply because it's rare and unique. Also because I like to imagine how my car would look in other colours and make my decision for my next colour that way as well.

Not to thread jack but for the longest time I've always wanted a black '99 gsx.

Then when I bought the car (in silver, my lease favourite colour of all), I figured I might explore other options.

But in the end, if I decide on something else...I'll still always want a black '99 gsx. So why not just be done with it and go black!?!

I'll eventually start a thread on that next season.

Keep up the good work! It's entertaining! smile

Hey... I like what I like!

Id say keep it yellow but get a CF hood. Your hood is cool but the CF takes away from all the yellow.

Where does the aluminum portion of the exhaust begin? Just behind the turbo?

Then while I was at it thought I might as well make a new detachable chute mount and light weight chute holder
