Yup, colourblind, but went for sanguine orange regardless. Got her back today.

Wow certainly different, especially not being cupped (unles they're winter wheelies?)

As said in the welcome, Looks good!

No cup according to the welcome post Maggi!

 

[Kabukiboy1976]

Thank you both

 

[singlespeed]

Yep, that looks prety good Different enough to be eye catching, but not silly bright and shouty to go WTF.

Although I'm not sure about the bonnet... Matt black bonnets tend to look like its just been fitted and you can't be bothered getting it sprayed :? I know its a carbon effect wrap, but it still looks plane matt from a distance

Liking the black and orange combo! I almost went with an orange and blue combo with my car

 

[Kabukiboy1976]

Thank you single speed and Scott. Yeah pic doesn't show bonnet too well, but I know what you mean. Was a good job they did, but I know my taste wouldn't be for everyone. Looking forward to trying to meet with a few 133 members, dunno if there are many London owners.

You can maybe wrap the bonnet in carbon 3m foil nice colour combo

 

[lgonzalez]

Looking good dude ;-) awesome!!!

 

[Kabukiboy1976]

Thank you again. The photo doesn't show it, but that is carbon fibre wrap at the mo. very fine thread though. Pleased to meet you all

Looks awesome, I love this! I've got mine booked in to have the same, but yellow, apart from the wheels!

 

[Kabukiboy1976]

Looking forward to seeing your finished photo nicholala

 

[weebob]

Love it. Always up for something different.

 

[waitey]

Looks good! My only suggestion is ditch the Matt black bonnet as that's a tad too much.

Could colour code the diamonds too

 

[Kabukiboy1976]

I did think about the diamonds. Black on wheels, orange on front and back?

 

[DrDrew]

I like the silver diamonds. Not sure on the bonnet either

 

[funky_d]

That looks great! This might seem a dumb question, but being colourblind, what colour do you see those parts as?

 

[maggi200]

It varies person to person. Historically the men in my family on my fathers side are colour blind, I only struggle with extreme colours, I guess they're the fluorescent kinda highlighter colours I struggle to tell apart. The test I went through confirmed the way I see everything else is how they imagine it should be.

Of course, who's to say 'colourblind' isn't true colour anyway

 

[BlackTwingo-i]

I have a theory on this..

Someone sees a colour as say red.. A 'colourblind' person sees the exact same colour, but recognises it as say orange or green or whatever colours you want..
So the colourblind person says "thats orange" but is actually red, but recognises the colour red as orange...

Hence... COLOURBLIND PEOPLE ARE BRAINWASHED CRAZY FREAKS!

No offence, just a theory

 

[Kabukiboy1976]

no offence . Occasionally I will look at grass in sunlight and to me it looks like my concept of orange (based on the fact I know an orange is...orange). Same goes for the new colour on my car, to me it ranges from a red to green (and also orange) depending on the light.

For those who want to have great fun with a colourblind person (my friends have done this to me so often Ive lost count). Look online for colourblind tests (little colour dots in a circle) we see secret hidden numbers that you "normal" people cant see, and vice versus.

So in summary, to me the car looks really nice and Im happy, however I could be alone in my tastes. Guess as with everything the main person i need to keep happy, as long as the Twingo fashion police dont kick me out for bad decisions :shock:
