    Color scheme for race fairings?

    Hello, I am a new member from Gothenburg/ Sweden!
    I need some suggestions on new color scheme for my race fairings.
    Here is a couple of rough photoshop experiments from today.

    The white looks very 'light'....nice.
    My very-old V4 has white rims - please try that in PS - at least the front.

    Many pictures shows a lot of the under-fairing and under-seat - maybe spots that could need attention.

    I've also played with colours....might inspire :-)

    Thanks
    I will try the white rim, like the idea having it only on front.
    Made a grey version here, thinking dark grey metal

    I liked the black until I saw the grey. The grey is very unique and up until you posted the pic would have been one of a kind for at least one season. LOL

    Think the white looks really clean.

    I like the grey the best since you don't see everybody else with that. It's unique and looks really good too.

    Du ar fran Goteborg min ven, jag ar klock i huvudet.

    Nice mockups, if you're looking for votes, that white is slick as snot. The Black is nice too, looks MEAN, like it wants to kick-ass.

    So how is Gotebory doing after the Saab news?

    Thanks for your opinions guys! just about as many fans of each color Maybe leaning towards the grey, because of the comms about uniqueness..

    Well Göteborg is just outside of the real epicentrum of saab problems (located in Trollhättan), but for sure it affects life here.. lots of people living here working at saab.
    Lets see what finally happens, saab constantly keeps reaching for a new "last straw"
