Thanks for all your input guys, Paul as you saw mate I do love your car but I dont want 2 of the same colour and same cars running around in the same state close to each other, so you are safe buddy. But thank for the link Paul appreciate it mate.

haha not sure vinh just went through pics of soarers ive saved was trying to post some like the colours he wanted cause that looks like a candy red with a slight bit of orange in it lol
nathan you will be hard pressed having a different colour that hasnt been done before. you will be better off choosing a colour you really like and doing it that colour who cares if other cars have it. cause when it comes down to it its yours and you want to be happy with it. the best thing to do is to find a colour that isnt a soarer colour but maybe standard on another car. it will be easily matched for repairs, when it is on the soarer the colour will look different anyway due to the lines of the soarer being different. mine is shockwave blue but nobody notices it even though its on thousands of fords lol its easily matched and with the standard pearls looks different in different lights.
with fibreglass dont get candy colours or flips or something that is hard to match, you will get stone chips easily and matching the paint or touching up will be a down right bastard.

what type of rims you have now? post up a pic of it now cause if you arent going to change wheels you will want to try get something that goes with them.
with your kit do you have the fog lights and grille? little things like that set a car off making it look much neater and complete.

Only having some fun Nathan, If you want do it the same as mine, that is fine. It is a factory colour, so easy to match.

Personally I think our cars look better in darker colours. Though there are some lighter coloured Soarers out there that have been done and look good too.
