1. Nathan Says: i have a mini and it is russet brown and i wanted to paint the roof a different colour and give it stripes but im not sure what colour.

2. SW Says: For me it really depends on interior and wheel colour for me to decide.

Tan (like cream) would look sick and definitely original.

But if you want something with less pop, Black metallic for roof, Black met for mirrors, 35% tint (light), matt black rims and matt black stripes.

Orange would also go with these colours maybe as pinstripes or upholstery stitching.

3. Emily Catlin Says: Russet is a dark brown color with a reddish-orange tinge.

The first recorded use of russet as a color name in English was in 1562.[2]

The source of this color is the ISCC-NBS Dictionary of Color Names (1955)--Color dictionary used by
stamp collectors to identify the colors of stamps[3]

The name of the color derives from russet, a coarse cloth made of wool and dyed with woad and

madder to give it a subdued grey or reddish-brown shade. By the statute of 1363, poor English

people were required to wear russet.[4]

4. K M T Says: Cream goes with everything.
