    Oh agree Mae. If I go green, I'm ditching red all together. I mean painting and changing all my red with green. So yeah yuck if i kept the red and added green.

    Hey Coastie, if you want a number decal - I can design one for you, and then all you'd have to do is bring the file to any truck lettering or vinyl decal shop and have them cut on a plotter and stick them on the doors. What number and style do you want? Got any pics for reference? Also, since I don't actually own a VX - some basic measurements of the door would be needed to get the proportions right.

    I also say no to the green. White/red/black to me is rally style. Leave the fluorescent green to the stanced crowd.

    Have you seen a green design yet? That would be interesting and surely different.

    Well i don't have photoshop so i figured to try it on my model to see how it would look. Not sold yet on the rims, but the decal i do like. Different for sure though. Also painted the roof black. Plus I gave my model a 4 inch lift too What u guys think?

    I think it needs to be white with the red decal, with black wheel centers with red lips. Black hood is cool. I just think the green does not provide enough contrast on a white car. If the VX was black with the green wheels/decal, that would be a different story.

    But I agree w/ logic... Red contrasts better w/white.

    Thumbs up

    I like the red you have now and I think it would look good with white wheels, red lips and black centers. I think the green would look better a little darker with white wheels and the same color green on the lips.

    I have photo shop and tried to modify you littlew model pictures but the res it just to low to work with. If you want I can try a couple of things in photoshop but I will ne a high res pic of the real VX. Email me a good pic of your VX.

    I think Chris is spot on...if the Green we dark like the Dragon Green Mica color it would look much better. Just MHO.

    How about black rims, with just the lug nuts green or, black rims, with the inside part of the rim green?

    Thanx for doing this Mae. Here is an idea of what I like. But I don't want a number on it, that something that can be added on top later if I ever can get a chance to join any small fun rally cross in florida. But its the same idea. I would like it to say on top *BHC* VX Rally in smaller font, right below say in larger font say vehicross.info <---that can be my first sponsor that i will represent everywhere I go, if thats ok with this site that is of course . The top background color can be what ever my new decal is, and same with the border. You can be as creative as you want, add to or take away what ever u like Mae. Surprise me, thanx so much again Mae. I really appreciate this a lot.
    Oh and please add a small Costa Rican flag anywhere on it for me 2 please, ty .

    This ebay webpage has a few examples.
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/RALLY-STYLE-...t_23406wt_1413

    I like this style as well, with a VX instead but i just really like the upper arch.
