Title: Is a turquiose Oval Ragtop Cal Look really a No Go today? Post by: Ace on March 06, 2016, 15:15:32 pm I asked thias also at Samba.com.
I dream in turquise since the 80s. I love these "Bonbon Colors" I hear some People saying NO DON'T DO IT!!!, no one like it. But I like it. AtM my Ragtop is in a Body off Resto. What you think? Its very hard. Thanks Original was Polar Silver.

But I like it. You said it. If you like it then do it, it's your car and you're the one paying for it and working on it! If you start worrying about what the VW scene has to say you are lost ;D Title: Re: Is a turquiose Oval Ragtop Cal Look really a No Go today?

Post by: Fiatdude on March 08, 2016, 01:21:54 am I love that color -- did a square back that color in the way back -- -- actually the mix was I gallon of white and the bottom 1" residue of 9 other cans of blue paint my painter had left over from other projects LOL
