My only problem with using trans-red is that it usually makes your interiors
very dark, which is why I chose white as my base color to add as much
brightness to the insides of the vehicles and builldings. I like the combo
of trans-red and dark red because they echo each other visually, and because
I wanted to keep the range of colors limited just like in the original. I
would've definitely considered using trans-black, but there just isn't
enough of it yet to make a whole theme.

I thought of that, but I eventually decided on trans-black because I wanted
to have a little variation in the overall trans-colors, and plus they just
look cool!
