Color for dart
I have a 1969 Dodge Dart that is being customized. I dont have any idea of what color i should paint it. Any ideas what might go well with it that not many people have?

Without trying, Will just inadvertently made a great case for hiring a designer and by your thread title alone, you're a perfect candidate to hire one.

Ya, asking 20,000 strangers is a way better plan! Originally Posted by DPG3

As for a color that not everyone is doing... green is a good color, like the new dodge viper green. But I think the question is way to vague without knowing more about what you are doing with the car...and not knowing what you like at all.

From my experience, the more intimidating you make your car, the more people want to mess with you. Theres something about a fast looking car that makes every wannabe racer with their fartcan equipped ****box come out and try to challenge you. I personally like a more subtle look.I like intimidating looks. Just somthing that says to not be messed with.
For color though, I've always liked a darker orange on that body style. Maybe with the tail stripe in the back.2005 CBR 1000RR..."mostly stock".
1968 camaro... "in the works".

I see. I dont want something that has already been done a thousand times too. Like green, i dont mean on just the dart but most muscle cars.

I like factory colors, and Mopar had a lot of cool ones in that era... my favorite is for "Sassy Grass Green"

I think black and yellow are killer together, but I'm personally not fond of the older mopar yellow's. To light with no depth. I love Yellow and the Viper Yellow is very deep. I almost put a matte black stripe on the scamp but got talked out of it. My current ride is Yellow with Black SS stripes. The chevy yellow of that year is ok still not deep enough for me. It just doesn't look a shinny as the Viper yellow. Compare?
