Paint Scheme Grades-February 5, 2022

By David G. Firestone

Kevin Harvick #4 Mobil 1 Ford Mustang-It’s a good look, it isn’t over designed, and it has a great color scheme. A

Tyler Reddick #8 Guaranteed Rate Chevy Camaro-Getting rid of the green was a good move, the car looks bolder, and the design looks great. A

Chase Elliott #9 Hooters Chevy Camaro-While I personally loved the black scheme, this is also a great scheme, well designed, and the color scheme is great. A

Ryan Blaney #12 Wurth Ford Mustang– didn’t think I could like the Wurth scheme more, but here we are. This toned down scheme works well, and has a great color scheme. A

Noah Gragson #16 Cure Token Chevy Camaro-I like the shade of yellow here, but the white stripes are way too over designed. It’s not bad, but without the stripes, this would get an A. With the stripes, this gets a B.

Kyle Busch #18 M&M’s Toyota Camry-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Martin Truex Jr. #19 Auto Owner’s Insurance Toyota Camry-I like the new pattern, it works well. The color scheme is great too, so this gets an A.

William Byron #24 Valvoline Chevy Camaro-Toning down the old Valvoline scheme works well, and the less is more design works well. A

Jacques Villeneuve #27 Team Hezeberg Ford Mustang-I don’t like the gray here, even though I would normally like the shade of gray, it just doesn’t work. The orange and number circle work well, so all things considered, this gets a B.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 Food 4 Less/Slim Jim Chevy Camaro-The new design really doesn’t add or detract from the previous scheme, so I’ll give this an A.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 Kroger/Irish Spring Body Wash Chevy Camaro-The light and dark green really clash with each other, as does the blue and dark green. The car itself isn’t over designed, so I’ll give this a C.

Cody Ware #51 Nurtec ODT Chevy Camaro-It’s a good look, with a great color scheme, and this will always get an A.

Cody Ware #51 Nurtec ODT Chevy Camaro-It’s a good look, with a great color scheme, and this will always get an A.

Noah Gragson #62 Beard Oil Chevy Camaro-This is a big downgrade. The new scheme is much too over designed, with needless stripes, and a needless sublimated design. The good color scheme and bad design scheme cancel each other out, and this gets a C.

Paint Scheme Grades-January 29, 2022

By David G. Firestone

Austin Dillon #3 True Velocity Chevy Camaro-Color scheme is great here, but I think it’s somewhat over designed. It’s not terrible, so I give it a B.

Kevin Harvick #4 Hunt Brothers Pizza Ford Mustang-The rearranging of stripes doesn’t add or detract from the new scheme, so it stays as a B+

Corey LaJoie #7 Schluter Systems Chevy Camaro-I think that the sublimated designs are pointless, but otherwise this is a solid scheme. A

Denny Hamlin #11 FedEx Express Toyota Camry-I like this look much better than last year. It’s well designed, has a great color scheme and a great fade. A

Ryan Blaney #12 Advance Auto Parts Ford Mustang-This new design is great! It’s well designed, and has a great color scheme. A

Harrison Burton #21 DEX Imaging Ford Mustang-My only complaint here is that the black isn’t needed. Other than that, this is a great scheme. A

William Byron #24 Liberty University Chevy Camaro-This is a great design. It works well with the new number placement. I like this, and it gets an A.

Josh Bilicki #77 Zeigler Auto Group Chevy Camaro-Good color scheme, plus a bad design scheme earns a C.

Paint Scheme Grades-October 30, 2021

By David G. Firestone

Quin Houff #00 Chariton Valley and Creek Enterprise Chevy Camaro-The only good thing I can say here is that I like the white. Everything else about this scheme sucks! D-

Ryan Newman #6 Violet Defense Ford Mustang-The yellow door numbers don’t work here, it clashes with the rest of the scheme, and takes a B scheme down to a B-

Tyler Reddick #8 Cat Dealer Tech Chevy Camaro-I like this scheme, the colors are great, and it isn’t over designed. This gets an A.

Aric Almirola #10 Farmland Ford Mustang-The green really isn’t needed here, the car would look cleaner without it. Also, the FARMLAND logos near the front take away from the scheme. I’ll give this a B.

Timmy Hill #13 CrashClaimsR.us Toyota Camry-NSame scheme as #66 Boathouse Bar and Grill, same B grade.

David Starr #13 Brown & Brown Dealer Services/Steelylumber Ford Mustang-The black is an upgrade, and takes the B- scheme up to a B.

Chase Briscoe #14 DeKalb Ford Mustang-I like the corn motif, and the car looks unique and bold, without being over designed. A

Garrett Smithley #15 Trophy Tractor Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as #13, same F grade.

Ryan Ellis #15 Arrowhead Brass Chevy Camaro-Metallic gold always looks good on a race car, and when you add in some good white and red elements, you get an A scheme.

Kyle Busch #18 M&M’s Halloween Toyota Camry-The changes are minor, and they don’t really affect the scheme, so it gets an A.

Matt DiBenedetto #21 Menard’s/Monster Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

William Byron #24 RAPTOR Chevy Camaro-I like the stone motif, and the green works quite well on the dark background. This is a great scheme, and it gets an A.

Ryan Preece #37 Louisiana Hot Sauce/Southeastern Mills Chevy Camaro-The Southeastern Mills area of the car clashes with the rest of the scheme. It looks so out of place, that it took an A- scheme down to a B+.

Josh Bilicki #52 RBR Aviation Ford Mustang-A great color scheme with a great design scheme will ALWAYS earn an A.

Joey Gase #53 Donor Network Chevy Camaro-There’s nothing really wrong here, but nothing really right either. It’s just meh, and it gets a C.

Justin Haley #77 Circle B Diecast Throwback Chevy Camaro-I like the two Stroker Ace throwbacks on the track, and this is a faithful replica, so this gets an A.

B.J. McLeod #78 Pala Casino Resort and Spa Ford Mustang-I love a good fade, and this is a good fade. A

Parker Kligerman #96 Fast Checkout Toyota Camry-A smooth look with a great color scheme will always earn an A.

Quin Houff #00 Bos Klein/North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame Chevy Camaro-Nothing wrong with this scheme, it’s great. A

Austin Dillon #3 Whelen Chevy Camaro-A smooth look with a great color scheme will always earn an A.

Kevin Harvick #4 Mobil 1 Ford Mustang-The black and silver stripes do pop more, but they are very visually distracting. The Mobil 1 on the rear looks forced. The color scheme is good. All things considered, this gets a B-

Ryan Newman #6 Castrol Pink Ford Mustang-Pinkwashing is an automatic F.

Tyler Reddick #8 Lenovo Chevy Camaro-Pinkwashing is an automatic F.

Aric Almirola #10 Ford Warriors in Pink Ford Mustang-Even if this wasn’t a pinkwashing scheme, it’s so badly designed, it would get an F anyway.

Garrett Smithley #15 Boom Mobile Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as #15, same A grade.

Josh Bilicki #15 Insurance King Ford Mustang-I like the look here, and the color scheme is great, so this gets an A.

Justin Haley #16 LeafFilter Gutter Protection Chevy Camaro-I’d like this scheme more if the water motif was across the car. I don’t like the black on the rear, it jumbles up the scheme. B

AJ Allmendinger #16 Jackpot Party Chevy Camaro-It’s a very well-done scheme, and it looks great. A

Chris Buescher #17 Fastenal Ford Mustang-Pinkwashing is an automatic F.

Matt DiBenedetto #21 Menard’s/Duracel Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

William Byron #24 Valvoline Chevy Camaro-The white on the sides is really odd looking, and really isn’t needed. I might like it more if it was around the whole car. Still, it isn’t awful, so it gets a B+

Anthony Alfredo #38 Citgard Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same B+ grade.

Erik Jones #43 Power to the Patients Chevy Camaro-A smooth look, a great color scheme, and an A grade does this scheme make.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 Kroger/Cottonelle Chevy Camaro-If you take a bad front, and add a mediocre rear, you get an F scheme.

Joey Hand #52 Boom Mobile Ford Mustang-Same scheme as #15, same A grade.

Garrett Smithley #53 Sparks Ford Mustang-It’s a smooth look, with a great color scheme will always earn an A.

Garrett Smithley #53 Kendall Motor Oil Chevy Camaro-The cutting edge motif works well here, and the car is well designed, so this gets an A.

BJ McLeod #78 CorvetteParts.net/Keen Parts Halloween Ford Mustang-I would normally say this is over designed, but with the Halloween motif, it works. This really does work. A

By David G. Firestone

Quin Houff #00 Mane ‘n Tail Chevy Camaro-These two motifs don’t really work, and they don’t look good, so they get an F.

Brad Keselowski #2 Thomas Built Buses Ford Mustang-Same scheme as Freightliner, same A- grade.

Austin Dillon #3 Workrise Chevy Camaro-I like the color scheme, and the design scheme isn’t over done, so this gets an A.

Austin Dillon #3 Dow Patriotic Chevy Camaro-I think this is a little over designed, and I think the red hood and roof aren’t needed. Still, this works, so I’ll give it an A.

Kevin Harvick #4 Mobil1Thousand.com Ford Mustang-Metallic gold is a great look, and the dollar motif works well too. A

Kyle Larson #5 MetroTech Chevy Camaro-I like the color scheme, but the car is pointlessly over designed. Too many distracting elements here. D

James Davison #15 Skip Barber Racing School Chevy Camaro-The color scheme here is great, the design is solid, and works well, so I can’t give this anything but an A.

Bubba Wallace #23 DoorDash DashPass Toyota Camry-A solid scheme with a unique color scheme will earn an A grade.

Michael McDowell #34 Outwest Express Ford Mustang-I like the color scheme, and the design scheme is bold, yet simple. This is a great scheme! A

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 Kroger/Louisiana Hot Sauce Chevy Camaro-This template is awful when the two sponsors work together. Here, the Louisiana Hot Sauce scheme is so different to the Kroger scheme, that is just looks horrible. F

Alex Bowman #48 Ally Financial Patriotic Chevy Camaro-It’s not over designed, and it has an amazing look to it. This is also a good look if it were a throwback. A

Josh Bilicki #52 Junction Fuels Chevy Camaro-I like the color scheme, and the design scheme is bold, yet simple. This is a great scheme! A

Justin Haley #77 Fraternal Order of Eagles Chevy Camaro-I think the black and yellow scheme works better, but this is a solid scheme that earns an A.
