Orange with black of blue graphics?

[steve930t]

I'm getting ready to paint my RS replica orange (tangerine) and my plan was to do black graphics. A few people have suggested blue graphics. I've never seen that combo before but it sounds like it may work. What do you think?

I think it would be something different and could look pretty cool. Of course the final decision is yours to make and live with. But at least if you don't like it, it's not too hard to change it to black later.

Dark blue sounds gud to me....if ya don't like it...you can always change it....or you could also use the light gulf blue. I sold a set to someone on the board and it was very stunning.

in black (also not mine).

I vote for the blue graphics in your case. Black looks good on yellow, and red looks good on a white car.

Blue!!!

Blue.

..or perhaps green..

[Kroggers]

Go blue....

[s2per]

Definitely blue. According to my wife, it is ALWAYS appropriate to wear orange and blue (UF colors)

[porschenut]

Blue, but paint it signal orange (like the pics above) instead of tangerine. Even better would be MikeZ's suggestion of the Le Mans classic gulf blue and orange.

Go for blue! It worked great on white.

[squerly]

My vote goes in the blue box.

Blue or to be different viper green!

Hi Steve. Would you believe someone else is thinking blue script on there just finished RS clone and it's orange!
I think dark blue would be the way to go. We'll never run into each other . I'm on the other side of the world!
Good luck with your project.

Thanks for all of the replies. I think blue is going to look great. I'll post some photos when it's done.

Mickb...Beautiful car!! How about some more photos and some details.

[MickB]

Thanks Steve. It's a back date. Started as a '76 2.7. It's been a long time coming. Now has a '91 3.6 ,carrera cooler in each fender. '86 915 box with cooler. Suspension has been done with elephant racing goodies. Don't have many photo's

I think it will look really sharp with dark blue graphics. Can't wait for the pics of the finished car.

OK, this may sound silly; if you have a copy of NFSPU, you can try some of these color combos out in the garage (including the Carrera stripe), along with various spoilers and wheels.
