yellow body with black cycle wings
or
classic BRG with yellow nose cone and or cycle wings

I have to agree with the others
Drop the white bonnet, it looks like the Polo harliquine.
my vote would go for the red body and the black wings.
i've gone with a totally black scheme.

Even an ally bonnet would look very odd imho. Ally sides would look good but not the bonnet.
Heres my car....

I think a bit of alloy is good. My Robinhood has a few stainless bits on it to cheer it up. The brother's Westie is all yellow, even the front
grill and I think it needs something to set it off.

Ali bonnets dont look bad aslong as they are polished up and have the right colour scheme. On a red car id go all red or all red with black arches.
No ali showing.
Personal preference thou hey.

I personally don't think you can get away with more than two major colours on a seven style car, otherwise it just looks like it's not
quite finished and still awaiting a decent paint job

this 2 colour comment is quite interesting.
that leaves me to leave it as is (all red but with ali bonnet) or paint bonnet red and paint wings black; hmmmmm..... (which is as shame as I didn;t
want to have another red car; oh well,,,)

They were on the car. They're Italian of some sort, but I can't remember the name. I've just searched my archives for the original
spec I got when I bought it, but can't find that either. I'm working abroad at the minute so can't just go and look....sorry.

That's just my opinion though - Don't pay much attention to it.
