Need some ideas for a polo green SVX
 
I was wondering if there are photos, or if some one could photoshop pictures of a 2-tone polo green svx? The paint is peeling on my front and rear bumper and I am going to get them repainted. I was thinking of going with another color for the lower half of the body with a set of JDM side shirts and gold ACE R20 wheels.

Are you thinking of a gray? What other color are you considering?

not sure, I have seen pictures of 2 and 3 tone cars but only with a sliver body.
I might go with the Rota SDR wheels over the ACE R20's

The Polo Green pearl is too pretty a color on its own to be anything but a solid color. I have thouht this over many times.


The only exception might be a black or very, very dark green roof.

The classic two-tone trunk, side garnish and spoiler just doesn't work.

Gold wheels don't work so well with this color.

Happen to come across this video. Not so much about the bragging rights of an SVX being able to beat a 4 cylinder Honda, but more about the color.

Polo Green and black combo does not look bad. The black rims and polished barrels bring it all together. 18" ??

Would also look sleek without the spoiler.

I have to agree totally with svxcess's comments. He is the undisputed expert on this color.:D Not so sure about the video though.

I am sure we would never have seen this video if the SVX had lost! :lol:

You could always do the Outback color scheme. :lol:

Seriously, I'm not that crazy about the black over green. Dark over dark doesn't work for me. However I think a darker shade of green on the lower part of the car could look really great.

My apologies for switching the discussed color - but since some of you seem to master the photo enhancement software could you guys try how the SVX would look in Porsche Gold Lime Metallic, please? Single color and with the stock black parts :eek:

A sample here: http://www.nordenporsche.com/invento...2013/2987/236/

Mine is claret and I live along a gravel road - all dark colors are real killers.... both dry and wet :(.

I have to fix some rust spots and need a part paint job anyway.....

I would really appreciate if someone had the time to try this :)

Thanks in advance,

Tapani

Back when I had the white SVX I though of painting the bumpers with that black bumper paint.. Always seems the bumpers take a beating on these cars. I swear people use them to tie their shoes or place packages on them or something.. :(
Sorry not a fan of that light gold brass look.
I love the black roof makes the roof look total glass. Like a bubble top. Might eventually do my roof black
