Flat black would be so utilitatarian, but didn't i read somewhere that the color isn't sprayed on but is used in the molds? If so the "flat" surface would have to be the owner's initiative.

I'm really starting to warm up to the Silver. It seems much less flashy than Orange or Green, and the car itself is already going to draw lots of attention, so maybe I'd be more comfortable with a less flashy color. Haven't decided yet.

I'm sticking with White Hot, a Red Orange stripe, and Red Orange topped two tone open Indian fenders. Cool, very easy, and easy to see.............like like me........did I mention flashy?

Adamant, regarding too flashy, impossible when it come to the Elio.

There's not enough body on the Elio to do a stripe like that.:D
If you want flashy, put sequential LEDs in the stripes, you can look like a landing strip :shocked:

No, it would be 1/2 as wide and it would be flashy to look like the Elio was doing a takeoff or landing. Although, I'm too old to be that flashy.
