Need help with color choice
I'm currently doing a Mitsubishi Evolution III and need help with what colors for it. I'm looking for a color to go along with sliver rims.
Here's the list of colors i am thinking of either of these (all colors from tamiya):
1)TS-14 black
2)TS-16 yellow
3)TS-18 metallic red
4)TS-39 mica red
5)TS-43 racing green
any other suggestions are welcome.

Why not use Yellow Chrome (Ts-47 I think) instead of Yellow (Ts-16)? I`ve gone through about 10 cans of Ts-16 now, and it isn`t as opaque as the Ts-47.

By the way, some shade of Yellow is my choice.

TS-17 Silver leaf
I am using the TS-17 for the rims. So looking for a color to match it.

Seems that mica red is quite a popular color.
