Yeah. I don't want to take away from it's originality, but I think it would look pretty nice in a darker color instead of having red. It sticks out like a sore thumb. What part of the bay are you from jic? I'm originally from Pittsburg, lived in Hercules, then moved to Hayward.

I would also keep it stock or maybe just a different variation of red unless you plan on stripping it bare and painting all parts of the chassis not just the exterior.

Stock, but maybe a repaint just to freshen it up a bit. Check out Rich's car (GoodfellaFD3S on the forum). He had his VR repainted in VR and it looks amazing.

Mine was repainted when a previous owner put the sideskirts on. It's still CYM, just a little brighter - more white in the paint? I think it looks much better. It's hard to see the difference unless you can arrange to have the two colours side by side. That happened when I repaired my front airdam and painted it with stock colour CYM epoxy paint. The spoiler is slightly darker - kind of neat.
Don't be upset with the standoutishness of the VR! Try mine - "Hey officer, I'm over here!!!"
