Maybe I wasn't clear at first, 1 option is a Apple Green. but I'm looking for ANY color option at all! not just green. I thought since I'm short on ideas, surely I can get some Ideas here. Like if you could paint your car over again or your other choices when you built your GL. that type of thing. or just favorite colors... I want a strong color, not blinding.

Basicly just ideas. because i'm short on Ideas. The same with the Mirror and Turn signals. Thanks for the sugjestions though.

loved that blue PT Cruiser color vujade had on his bug. i think it would translate well to a Ghia. Porsche Blood/Speed yellow is one of my favorites. Bahama Yellow (which is actually orangy) is another favorite. Porsche has some of the wildest and most tasteful colors out there. Corvettes have some great colors too. oh, and dove blue like panelfantastics is also one of my tops.

hmm is it limited to bright colors? are you going with a solid color or how about metalic. I think the PT cruzer blue would look cool. I think it would be better if you go with candy apple blue. That is a Gold base with a transparent blue over it then clear coat. You can also do the same over a silver base. It will look almost like the blue of Anodized blue aluminum. Viper Blue is also very cool if your are in to blue. I am painting my bug silver so go figure
