Germanlook Color?

I'm building a Germanlook 1302 and I'm trying to decide on a color. What are the more popular colors? I'm leaning toward a Silver Pearl. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Anything goes in my book.

Marina blue to Porsche colours to custom and beyond.

Vinyl wrap? graphics?....why not.

Obviously, it's your car so whatever you like. Generally, most people lean towards a single color with no trim. Since the emphasis of a German Looker is modern performance features, the color of choice also tends to be a modern color offered on a recent Volkswagen or a recent European performance car. Traditionally, silver is the color for German rallye cars, so that is also quite often a good choice. Adding a pearl to it can set it off to make it more your own.

Depends if you are building a high-tech or an old school car. Due to the curved shape of a bug a metallic color looks fantastic on it, but won't match with old school IMO. In both cases I would choose from factory Porsche colors I think
