What colour stripes?

So, for a long time I've had a good idea about what 'livery' I'd have on my racecar. Now, as it gets close to the time when I need to get my wheels refurbished to match, I'm wavering. I'd therefore like some help deciding.

So, Plan A was a large Brown Stripe with a Small Orange Stripe - very unusual and retro but I saw it on a race support vehicle in New Zealand and it looked awesome.


However, my powdercoat on the chassis didn't quite work out as planned and it's got a hint of green in it.

As a result, I'm now also considering the following options as well:









So, what's it to be? In the list above, the first colour is for the large stripe; the second is for the smaller one.

What about

Green (BRG?)/Orange

and since I'm colour blind it would look the same as your original brown/orange idea to me, plus would blend with your chassis powder coating.

Voted G/ G since you dont mention if you you have any planned blue bits on it. As your chassis ' appears' to have the hint of green, then go with that combo?. Speaking personally, any stripes on a car should be complimented elsewhere in/ on the car. I went for the old JPS Black / Gold scheme, bit boring possibly but I like it.

What about considering combining the two green strip option with the brown from your original thought in between the stripes. You could add the small orange stripe somewhere as well maybe, but the green and brown would be good I think.
