Talking Which red is the brightest of them all

I think I am going to pull the trigger on wrapping my E55 guys. I do need some input though, I was going to go with the MB Mars Red, but I think I want it to pop a little harder.

From your observations, which manufacturers red is the brightest and sickest of them all. The shop I am going to use can get the color coding from the manufacturer, and they say it will be 99.9% identical to what ever color I choose

I have sold off all my daily commuters, so the beast is going to take up the responsibility of that function, so keep that in mind

Let me know which red you recommend.

Viper Red - IIRC paint code PRN


Or

027 Guards Red .


Just my opinion though, might have forgotten something brighter.

If you guys have any other suggestions, pics would be great with the paint code

As a reference:

Mars Red



Ford-Rio Red

You may want to check Lexus Matador Red Mica color, it is a great multi layers color that has deep red hue with a flakes that make it pop when the sun hit. My all time favorite Red, both subdued and aggressive, but a color that will be for sure a challenge to achieve with a wrap.
