Well, my celi is purple...
 honestly, i don't like that color. however, it used to be yellow and when the previous owner painted it, he had a cheap job done to it. They only painted over the yellow, so is there a possibilty to return it to yellow by sanding the purple coat very carefuly back to the yellow then adding a clear coat finish? EDIT: The purple comes off quite easily, my front end is full of yellow dots from rock chips, same for the rockers.
