What colour should my Skyline R34 be?

What colour do you think my Tamiya Nissan Skyline R-34 GT-R (box image:blue car) should be?
Please respond to the poll above, but if you have other views, please post a reply.

BTW: Its going to have a Carbon Fibre engine hood, and a Carbon Fibre wing.

Re: What colour should my Skyline R34 be?

I think the red would looks very nice. Other colors, I've seen too much. A red one would be different and nice. Did you get the Tamiya one?

Hmmm...a 2 tone paint job? I suppose you mean that i paint the body in 2 colours right?
If that's the case, what two colours would go well?

Its Decided.

Ok folks thanks for your views. i have decided that its either going to be Bright Orange, or Pure White, or Italian Red.

Please post replies and choose which colour you think suits my R34 Skyline the most. Please choose only Bright Orange, Pure White, or Italian Red.

Well, for sure I'm gonna build the Mines R34 eventually. I don't think I've seen a car so beautiful looking!! Except maybe that s15/180sx conversion in the other thread

From the list I'd say Italian Red maybe. I can't say I've seen one before, which would give it a nice touch of individuality!!

PS: If you had an airbrush you could have tried making the Nur Spec Millenium Jade colour, I'm sure people would kiss you for that. I know I would

Its decided FINALLY that the car is either going to be in Millenium Jade (if i manage to get the paint), or in Racing White.
Either way, its going to have a Carbon Fibre Engine Hood .

nah man. if you do happen to get millenium jade, dont f*** it up with a cf hood... that just wouldn't be cool imho.
If you are going for white, might as well make the mines r34. thats white with nice carbon fibre!

my 2c anyway

Ok Sebstar, I'll take your advice.
So, its going to be:
Racing White, with Carbon Fibre Engine Hood
Millenium Jade, plain body with NO Carbon Fibre.

Cool What It Might Look Like.

Hopefully all going well , it should look something like this:

Just that it does not have the TRUST decals on the CF bonnet.

BTW this is Steve's (Hirokid) car (and pic), his was yellow in colour. I photoshopped it white to illustrate how mine would look like. Steve...i hope you won't blame me for using your picture

This is Steve's original picture:
