You'd have to add a lot more than a bit of orange to make it look like one of those.

I like the GT3 RS as a car.

But if I could afford one, I'd pay more to lose the stickers and have black wheels. I think it looks good, but only on a track car.

If you do that to your car, you'll ruin it's sale value IMHO

Yep just like that although I would change it to read Alfa Romeo or something

Obviously I would do it with vinyl so I could get rid any time I wanted and I have a spare set of wheels ..........

One man's meat is another man's poison... sounds like your minds almost made up, if its what you're happy with then do it.

As tempting as it is, I deliberated long and hard about following a colour theme on my project, in the end sticking with standard colours for the chassis, hoses, engine, piping, grip tape and anything else that's on the car. As its a exocar by changing the colour of a few key panels I can now change the whole look of the car without any major hassle or clashes with blue hoses red manifolds and yellow grip tape.

Hmmm... some "too cool for school" comments going on here!

Why not give it a go and see how it looks in the flesh! Start with the decals as they won't cost much, and as you say, you can rip them off if it ends up looking naff. If you like them, then get the wheels to the powder-coater!

In answer to your question/header, Yes, but who cares.

Why not instead of orange do a running bi/tri colour stripe from white red and green. A bit more italian, and might look good on the alfa! You can then get white or red wheels depending on how lairy you want it to be.

Forget it mate, Louise will never allow it anyway lol

My opinion for what its worth is that you should try it and see how it looks, if it looks like a penis extension then take them off, easy....
