      The yellow definatly looks good on blue. If I didnt have a red car I probably would do a different color when I do it.

        Looks nice, very contrasting with the blue. Brigher colors go with blue very well, like orange and yellow.

                  awesome man, as i was going to paint mine yellow..as well as the covers in the hood

                  being from WV, keeping the ole blue and yellow would go well with the WVU fans

                  i like it...did you use the duplicolor like everyone else?

                    Wait till I get better pictures!! It is awesome...in my humble opinion.
                    I used the G2 system. I found it cheaper on e-bay.
                    Here is a link that tells about it:

                    and here is where I bought mine.

                        Ive heard good and bad about Duplicolor and nothing but
                        good about the G2 system. I like the ease in application
                        and the gloss is awesome. No brush marks!!

                        Kinda pricey for paint you mix with a hardener but I'm happy.

                        Ill post some more pix today. I had to charge my camera.

                          You can see the contoured mud flaps pretty good in those pictures as well.... :P

                          Can quite get the spokes out of the way to see it all.
                          I wonder if I can find a host for video....hhmmmmmmm

                            yellow is definately the best color for the blue g6 IMO. i have a black coupe and cant decide what color to paint mine. I was orignally thinking red, but i also like the yellow. i've even thought about using black. just about anything would look better than they do stock. so what color should i go with?

                              Go black or red, or if you want to get fancy do a combo, bracket in red, and caliper in black with a brushed aluminum caliper decal on it.
