🏎️ Staff Picks

Here are a few paints Team Trading Paints is enjoying currently.

Juha Miettinen Memorial Car (Sim Stamped Number) by Logan Martini - Trading Paints
Within the first 30 minutes of the first ADAC 24hr of Nürburgring qualifying race, a 7-car incident occurred in Klostertal section, injuring several drivers, and tragically claiming the life of one, Juha Miettinen. He was 66 years old Miettinen had competed in over 50 races throughout his career, winning five races and claiming 25 podium finishes. He leaves behind his wife, Anja Miettinen, and three children. Rest In Peace, Juha Miettinen The Sim Stamped numbers are white, so I had to take some creative liberties. Logos were all found on Google.
Ramplify NASCAR Truck Series RAM (No Numbers) by Scott Mitton - Trading Paints
RAM is Back in the NASCAR Truck Series, and with it all of it’s alter-egos. Ferocity Graphica: Raceday presents the Ramplify RAM. This scheme is amped up and ready to be heard. I hope all of the Dodge and RAM fans enjoy these new trucks! Shout-Out to Big Evil Designs for some of the template upgrades!
BS Bean Racing (chrome blue) by Ben Switzer - Trading Paints
2026 Tyler Reddick #45 Rockstar Energy Drink CONCEPT by Davin Cornelius - Trading Paints
Reddick’s new ride if it matched the design of Fredric Aasbo’s Formula D car.
