Bright yellow green or orange suggested solid white if you dont run A/C.
The problem is that the tail it is still a 20 footer at best. When you get closer
it becomes apparent. I would have to fiberglass and do a lot of transition work (car to tail) instead of using duct tape. Flat black primer hides everything.

Still in the testing stage.
