I'm thinking of a sand dune, sand storm type color. Something very similar to the Royal Enfield bike. I like the contrast of sand and black and have always liked my 4x4/Overland vehicles to be earth tones.

Here's an option, if you don't like it just peel it off

While quite interesting, and good in theory, if I was to ever change my cars couloir I would make sure I liked it before I did it, and that it was what I wanted.

Screw spending all that money just to peel it off in a few weeks!

It is meant to last a while, dosent damage the original paint.
That or get the car wrapped, both supposed to be cheaper than a full respray.

I would change to any color from the current champagne. Baby poo brown would be preferable.

I did a Bare Metal respray on the GQ. I spent ALONG TIME thinking about the colour as everything was possible. I ended up going white cause it looks awesome.

I'd go a ford tango orange (gt orange) with gloss black accessories.

With wants all black. :-(
I guess that's still better than bloody white!!

Don't know what it's called, would like to do what the rodders do to ratrods, looks like it's been in the weather for years but has a clear coat over the top. That way scratches, dirt, dents etc won't look out of place. Lol

I think we should settle once and for all what is the favorite Patrol colour so do this pole:



Polar White
Cool White
Soft White
Regal White
Bone White
Colonial White
Cream

I want to paint mine with orange or black ute liner, for that little extra toughness.

A metallic hot pink with maybe a violet pearl or similar.

Or paint it up like Optimus prime.

I had a Hilux Surf that was gun metal grey and it kept breaking down so I think that colour is very unreliable.

White!?! ... seriously gents. Company cars are white. The surrender flag is white. Must be an Aussie thing I don't understand.

White UPOL Raptor.
I know it's matted, but it is unscratchable and resistance against road chemistry.

If I were to respray, I would either go white, black, or I nice shiny red. Probably not black though. I love it but soooo hard to keep looking good.

I'd paint mine electric blue, I recon it would look pretty cool
