Not sure how much help it would be if we all just told you our favorite color.
Why dont you post some pics of possible choices and start a poll.
Just trying to help get your question answered.

Are you wanting to do an original color or does it not matter? There are actually some decent original colors as well as some reborne like the legend lime malcolmzilla posted, its pretty sweet!

Color is really a personal choice, just make sure you think resale when you choose just in case. If you go funky you'll lose alot of the resale value.

Between bronze and green, I vote green, but it's your Bronco. I agree with Tito, there were some decent factory colors (some great ones in my opinion).

I you are leaning toward blue check out Electric Blue Metalic and Pepper White. They are Mini Cooper colors that were discontinued a couple of years ago. That is the colors I'm going with. I really like the gun metal greys and silvers or silver blue with a black soft top but is seems like 75% of the trucks and SUVs sold over the past 5 years are that color.

It was purely a coincidence, I said what I said because I was going to paint my Bronco Lime Green and then went with steel blue metallic just in case I ever had to sell it. I would never make fun of Tito's Pink Lady Bronco just like I would never make fun of his blonde wig, both are ok in some circles.


Theres a certain irony when a post like #5 follows the previous poster. ;D :p

I agree, it's a lot nicer than some of the Broncos I've seen in Phoenix that sold for 50 g's.

Color is a very personal choice. That legend lime color is pretty cool and I've never been a big fan of the copper color on EBs, but this is just one guy's opinion. I've got a thing for Orange broncos myself but its not like that hasn't been done to death...

I think you're right Tito! Keep working on her about it... I bet you could get some good money for it at BJ.

I have always wanted mine a green that looks black. It is very hard to choose. It took me five years to decide on the Harley I built. I am really excited about these new flat colors. Red, green, or blue in a flat satin look.
