New color

I entered a contest at a car show up here in Maryland and I won a paint job.

We thought maybe we would just do the same color and make her new again and then I thought... Why not change her color. She turned out beautiful!!

Oh by the way we are coming back to NC in November...Bobs job is transferring him to Cliffside!

BEFORE





AND AFTER:









What do you all think?

Is that a tangerine? It's purdy. Will you have to change your NAM name now?

The color is actually called Tangelo. I am not going to change my NAM name for now... I thought about that before I changed the color but decided not to.
Its a prettier orange in person then in these pictures. Can't wait to meet up with all of you!

That looks good. Who did it for ya? What kind of paint did they use? Hope to see it in person somewhere along the line.

We did the kids 07 mellow yellow MCS in a pearl yellow earlier this year. It's neat having a different colored MINI!
