While the boys are hard at work on the car I'm idly speculating on the cosmetics. It's the site car though so time for you all to start thinking about what colour it should be. If you've not already checked it out have a look at the project thread here http://www.fiat-scotland.com/fiat/upload/showthread.php/13869-Project-FS

The current thoughts backstage are

FS Blue
Italian Flag (green O/S, white centre and red N/S)
Broom Yellow
Matt black and pink (it's current state)
Other

Italian Flag

Italian flag down the sides, Scotland flag on the roof/bonnet

Leave it how it is for now and save money

That's the plan in the interim, but the paint job is obviously a longer term plan. Definately want the car lookiong presentable for showing off in 2014.

You want it to stand out you said so how about a tartan vinyl rap with FS logos every where

Once completed and mechanically sound till then matt black and primer will do

Well that would certainly stand out but I worry we'll end up looking like an over-sized backwards wheelchair with a tartan rug over it :laugh:

btw, any photoshop experts out there feel free to have a play with changing the colours

IMHO, leave it as is but freshly painted and clean, but on the bonnet and roof, as suggested above, 2x half/half saltire/italian flags

i.e. bonnet, left side half saltire, right side right side of italian

roof, left side left half of italian, right side half saltire

I like that idea maybe as stickers with either Fiat Scotland or the URL across it but not for the site car. I think it would look too busy for the car

It's deffinitely got a lot of potential to be a head turner, but the current pink on it is awefull. Maybe make the pink parts broom yellow. Yellow and black goes quite well together. I hope the barbie is gone
Would be awesome to join u guys on weekends, just to watch and help a bit to gain experience! Sadly a bit of a drive. The car is looking great, keep it up!

Barbie is gone. Gone and almost forgotten. Skanky ho was cheating on the car

Pink is indeed going - not sure on what colour(s) yet but the sooner it's all gone the better.

Where about are you again? The plan is to hold local fix its up here so that we can get the car MOT'd and then, potentially, take the car around the country for further work so we can do fix it meets elsewhere

im going other.... any color will do tbh as long as its all the same color and propperly done. something that isnt a fiat color will usually help turn heads so a pearl white gets my vote as i think pearl white seicentos have always looked good.

Plasti dip the car I've done a few now and the stuff is amazing and make any colour :-D

Poll is now closed and FS Blue won. There's a mock-up backstage which hopefully Mark will post here shortly
