Whoa, very nice custom color choice !!! That color'd be easily recognizable far down the road, can't wait to see the final product. Oh, how about the inside engine compartment panels? How do they get paint?

If it only was a BMW color because it not.

Nice but if its anything similar to the Famous Bright Lime Green one in Japan, It will not be so unique.. Bit of copying since there the same cars lol.
