I hope not but I suspect it will be a one off.

It's the main scheme. Jimmie himself confirmed it on Facebook.

He posted a preview of the Kobalt Tools version, which looks to be the same as above, only black:

That's awesome as hell. Not really like Jimmie had some real bad schemes, but damn.

Only thing I would do is continue the stripes on the rear and ended the stripe pattern above the grill around the Bowtie.

I know alot of schemes don't make 'sense' anymore but that scheme doesn't particularly scream "Lowe's Home Improvement" to me. I do like the car itself though. The black Kobalt tools version looks like it could be very cool too.

I like it, but seems NASCAR designs as a whole have gone from low-rent in the 80s, to awesome and inspired in the 90s, to particularly uninspired in the 2000s, to "what the hell, let's retro-fy it" now.

Still waiting to see if they change anything about the Toyota sheet metal besides the decals to reflect the completely new model Camry. My guess is they won't.

No diamond plating. Good.

I think the chocolate is better than diamondplate in this case because you're more likely to think about chocolate than diamondplating when you hear M&M's.

I wish they could just leave the bumpers alone.. if it's not diamond plating, it's chocolate. :roll:
