I am not building it like the movie one so does anyone have color suggestions?

heresa colour suggestion- metallic purple background with a red stripe, and two white-fading-into-yellow stripes curving up onto the roof? sounds complicated, but ive done it on my RC eclipse and it looks pretty sweet. Id love to see a 1/24th version but the thin black outlines might be a bit fiddly to mask off.
Heres a pic-

Indeed it does look good in red , The MI on the hood would be nice if it was black though, it would show up on the color much better, my color suggestion would have been a metallic blue, testors makes a color called Met Saphire Blue, its a veeerrry nice color , although most ppl dont like testors color..

Hey Zwaag. What do your decals look like? Can you take a pic of them? If you have them all and are interested maybe we can work out a trade?
