Is the colour it's ment to be (white) the best colour or do I need something else to make it stand out for the others!!!!

please help me decide

Had the same dilemna with my Hotshot, which isn't all that different in body style.

Suggest you have a look through the gallery shots for the boomerang and hotshot 58047 / 58391, and see what you like and dislike - i liked gunmetal, and this would have worked OK with the Hotshot (red dampers etc), but in the end i thought it might be a bit dark with all the black plastic and opted for boxart red for one mould and i'll be doing another racing green with union jack flag decals.

I'm not a huge fan of white TBH, but if you wanted to stay near boxart then perhaps a pearlescent white might be subtley different ?

Cheers for the reply, White looks ok and also the gunmetal grey which you said...

What about Subaru Blue whats your thoughts on that?

Have you got any photos on and Boomerangs/Hotshots

Just look at the members rides section on the main tamiyaclub site

Re-re Hotshot gallery http://www.tamiyaclub.com/userridescat.asp?id=796&cat=2

Boomerang gallery http://www.tamiyaclub.com/userrides.asp?id=966 The yellow on in the newly built section looks nice, complements the damper cases well.

Hi guys, looked at this nice Boomer and looks the bizz. Can anybody tell me the paint code of the gun metal and what sort of paint it is?

Cheers

Doug :angry:
