Default Cyber Green Paint Scheme need feedback!

First post here...

Just picked up a 01 NB tdi. For the price I paid, I feel like I stole it... However, not crazy on the color. Here is my attempt at artist rendering and need some feedback. This will get "rattle canned" primer black this weekend. Don't hate, that is just my style. Thoughts? Feedback?

I'm cheap and this was the cheapest/best condition/low mileage tdi I could find. I am a middle 20's 6'4" male. Help.

I like #1, but needs Take5 wheels, painted matching black with cyber green inserts. Not sure what 6'4" height has to do with it, unless you're planning an access hole mod in the roof for your head! jk

#2 would look good if you leave the running boards green. Also i'd bring down the black that runs accross the door about 4 inches. There's a nB around here with a similar paint scheme, but in Black/Silver- same theroy, different colors, same result.... nice

Scarab- assuming you are thinking something like this? It does have a roof rack already and I dropped it off to have 20% tint done tonight. Should be done by lunch tomorrow.

I agree with Al, I like what you show in the last picture but leave the running boards green. Keep the pictures coming as you make the changes.

Much better, now #3. Ditto, green running boards.
