I'm a big fan of Yellow, but this is just nasty IMO...

I agree.

A S2000 yellow would be better.

BUT... the concept is still tits.

Its Dakar Yellow, definitely not Phoenix Yellow....guess it was either painted at the factory (who knows, maybe they accepted the color) or it was custom painted, using the DY paint code.

Doesn't look that great.

its still an M5, id pimp it ina heartbeat. you need a bright color on that type of car, so you can see that bitch when your still at the light and he is a quarter mile down the road but id personally get a darker color.

I like it...I see what you guys mean by needing a brighter yellow. But I would prob. reserve yellow for a 2 dr sports car. IMHO that yellow goes good with it.

BTW the black side moldings are a Euro thing...what ya gonna do about it.

TITS?!?!? Can't you stop think about that for two seconds?
I don't feel for the yellow either. Maybe a metallis burgundy. Who's that guy who photoshopped that MSB (monkey shit brown) onto the CLs? Can you work your magic on that too?

Nah "that guy" is too tired right now.

It's easy though.

Fire up PhotoShop, select the area, choose Image, Adjust, Replace Color, and choose the new color. That's the basic idea. Fiddle with the settings on your own.
