Actually not at all, my thinking was originally something like the Weld FRS.

No Cutting Corners: The Weld FR-S - Speedhunters

But after talking with the painter we actually strayed away from that idea and ended up with a lighter red color. Something he picked out actually.

However this cherry red is not really the final color.. There's a blue pearl that will be laid over this, so bodylines etc will darken up to a purple-ish hue.. looked pretty cool on the sample he did up for me a couple weeks ago.

Also most all of the carbon pieces on the car will have a ever so slight red pearl/flake added to them. The raw carbon fiber didn't really go well with the pearl color, the light red pearl ties it in nicely.
