Well, I'm going to be convinced and I'll leave it yellow imola jajajaj. I did not think it was so rare to see.
Wrapping it in another color is not an option, why? Because this car is badly painted with different shades and bad cuts in the joints, that's why I HAVE to paint. Then to wrap it in another color, first would have to paint to leave it well.
I appreciate the help received and I promise that when I have the car ready I will present myself in the forum as it has to be.

No no, it's the original, but they have repainted some parts (I think from scratches) and they have done wrong

I intend to paint mirrors in anthracite gray, black grill, add a front lip, black headlights, add rs logo on rear callipers and paint the brake calipers (gray as performance or green as the photo) (the green thought if the color chosen was Imola)

The Blue RS4 with Ceramics that you showed us, is my photograph that I took of my own car at a Boxhill Meet - the car is now owned by daytonamart. Hence why he likes it and gave you the wink smilie.

Has brown not died a death on the Euro modification scene?

Out of the two, I'd personally stick with yellow and you could always go with a Cognac colour interior, if you really want some brown in your life.

Ahh jajajajaj I hope you do not disturb anyone the photo I chose to show the color of the brakes.

On interior I just want to make remove the aluminum, put carbon and vinyl seats in black gloss or maybe real carbon too.

I like the brown but the yellow is way better.

Black roof, black mirrors and badges all black then paint the inside of the lights satin black.

It's just what I'm going to do, but I do not see the roof in black on this car. And mirrors probably in anthracite because they come OEM

The was my take on things and something I will be doing to mine with black carbon mirrors if James from Dubai makes them or I will just paint mybsoare caps black.

There were no anthracite OEM mirrors on the B7. They were either matt aluminium (most popular) or titanium (much rarer) which is a lot lighter than antracite.
