Orange? (newer question....)

Ok so I have been kicking around the idea of what color to go with, I had the idea today to do a orange. I like the GT orange, however I envision a super pale creamy orange. I searched aprox 20 pages on the forum and have seen almost every shade of orange, except what im looking for....Anyone have any pics or color ideas on where to begin?

Try some of the 914 or 356 colors. They have a Tangerine that is nice.

There is a porsche somewhere on one of these theads with a creamy orange metallic. i think it may be something like orange metallic pearl - cannot recall. I think it is in one of the "show me your favorite color' type threads. It was a real mice color. I think it was a 930.

Look at some 50's cars. Lots of "creamy colors" or sherbets. This car was at last months Atlantic City Antique Car Show This car is more of a shrimp or Flamingo color.



Companies like House of Kolor or PPG will mix you a color if you send the a sample. Maybe try HD or Lowes pick a color and send it off.

I think Orange Creamsicle would look pretty cool actually. Kind of '74 IROC looking.
