Paint Scheme Grades-April 1, 2023

By David G. Firestone

Kevin Harvick #4 Mobil 1 Ford Mustang-It’s a smooth look, with a great color scheme, and that will ALWAYS earn an A.

Brad Keselowski #6 Wyndham Rewards Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Corey LaJoie #7 OpTic Gaming Chevy Camaro-The paint splatter motif could be better, but the giant logo along with it is just horrible, and I can’t give this higher than an F.

Ryan Blaney #12 Menard’s/Knauf Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Bubba Wallace #23 MoneyLion Toyota Camry-This is even worse than last year, and that fade helps NOTHING! F

Noah Gragson #42 Black Riffle Coffee Resort Chevy Camaro-The small stripes alone would get an A, but this looks so awful, it gets taken down to a C.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 Kroger/Blue Buffalo Chevy Camaro-I get the use of blue, but there are too many blues here. Add in that the front is a bit over designed, and this gets a C.

Cody Ware #51 Public SQ Ford Mustang-If the black on the front was replaced with the fade, this would get an A, it’s still good enough to get a B+

Jimmie Johnson #84 Club Wyndham Chevy Camaro-It’s a smooth look, not over designed, and it gets an A.

Daniel Suarez #99 Quaker State Chevy Camaro-This color scheme works a little better than the Freeway Insurance color scheme. B-

Paint Scheme Grades-March 11, 2023

By David G. Firestone

Brad Keselowski #6 Fastenal Ford Mustang-The blue lettering is hard to see without a black outline, and that takes this scheme from an A to an A-

Corey LaJoie #7 EnviroXstream Chevy Camaro-I like the shades of blue, but this isn’t a good look. D

Corey LaJoie #7 Bluegrass Vacations Chevy Camaro-The green looks awful, and the car is somewhat over designed. I give this a C-.

Ryan Blaney #12 Menard’s/Pennzoil Ford Mustang-The newer black numbers stand out more, and have a bolder look. This gets an A.

J.J. Yeley #15 OTR Employment Service Ford Mustang-I like the color scheme, but the car is very cluttered at points, and the odd X logo on the side is confusing. C

Joey Logano #22 Pennzoil Ford Mustang-This takes me back to the Steve Park era Pennzoil scheme, which was a great scheme, and a great look! A

Bubba Wallace #23 Columbia Sportswear Chevy Camaro-This is a hell of an upgrade from last year’s multi-colored pastel mess. This is a great look, and gets an A.

Todd Gilliland #38 Ruedbusch Development and Construction Ford Mustang-The cleaner look makes for a better look, and goes from a B+ to an A.
