Love the "Storm Trooper" look of both my '04 Disco2 and '89 One Ten but possibly straying on the IG

They might do a Boba Fett colour in version 2.
That would be good!

Sweet as a nut! Re-paint or wrap?

Guessing 285/70/17s on Method 702 bead grips too, 17" x 7.5", offset +50

EDIT: Looks like 285/75/17s

Looks like a great wrap. I wonder what it cost.

I'm struggling to decide upon a color and bet I'm not alone (currently debating Magic Mushroom, Sela Green, Brittannia Blue, and Scottish White). I thought it would be helpful to stake out a thread for folks to post high quality non-rendered videos of the different colors (and roof color combos) on the road, in the bush, etc. in a variety of lighting conditions.

So, to kick things off, here is a HD video of a Magic Mushroom Trialmaster in action that I stumbled across:

If you have found some similar quality videos for MM and the other colors, please share them here. Thanks!

Same colors I am looking at

Here in UK it would be assumed to be a breakdown truck. Orange is the colour of the RAC breakdown service. Doesn’t stop it being snazzy mind.

So is the guy working on the rear tire at the stage of putting the mud guards on the incorrect side or improperly attaching the grommets

Agreed. I'm not usually a bright colors guy but I would drive the hell out of that.

Damn, if orange was available to retail customers I'd take it in a heartbeat. my 64 series was painted CP Air orange. I was fortunate that a gallon of orange paint fell into my fathers lunchkit along with all the prep materials required to paint a land rover. An 8 dollar rental of an airless sprayer and voila no more road service vehicle white. http://cpair.blogspot.com/2007/03/fleet-douglas-dc-8s.html

I am excited to see what color options are added with ongoing production. Ineos has done an excellent job with their offerings. I would take that Agent Orange in a heart beat

I am being tortured – stop it – please. I originally was going to choose Eldoret Blue with a Black Roof and then switched to an all Shale Blue Trial Master and was really resting well with my final choice and then you have to post this. At least mine is still Blue. DaBull

In certain light, if you hold up the 2 samples say in the sun, then those 2 blues look identical but for the ‘sparkles’ in the metallic.
does that help you relax
They are all good colours… second guessing yourself is nearly impossible to avoid, but if you were drawn to a colour, trust yourself. Its easier than grinding your teeth…
