Paint suggestions please!

[SWoolley]

My 83 sc is currently undergoing a widebody conversion and it's time to pick a paint color. I'm running fikse FM 10s with black inserts and polished lip. The car has a black interior. I have always been partial to silver but am entertaining other ideas ( not black) . If anyone has any pics or suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Gulf Blue.

Yeah Gulf blue would look good. I'm partial to orange as well, orange with black interior and accents. Nice ......

I think SCs and Carreras look best in metallic colors. Does it have to be a Porsche color? If not I'd look at the painter's color books and pick something that you really like. There are a thousand shades of silver, for instance.

I will be running a duck or a decklid ( no whale tail ) solid colors over metallic seem to have been catching my eye

I vote for solid color. When can we expect pics?

Laguna Seca M3 blue....no metallic, would look nasty. Especially with black wheels

This has become one of my current favourites, and nobody seems to be copying it.
(found picture on pelican thread somewhere).

I can't seem to figure out how to upload pics off my phone...sorry fellas. Nimbus grey and slate grey look pretty sharp with black wheels if anyone that setup!

im partial to gulf blue. i always associate laguna seca blue with bmw m3s...and it is my favorite color on m3s!

Thanks for all the input fellas. Orange and gulf blue are a little too loud for my personality at the moment! I followed a fellow Pelicans thread (emptyo

(emptyo) 69rs and he went with an amazing solid grey. Along those lines is what I'm looking for but can't seem to find any definate codes or names

Mexico or Riviera Blue looks fantastic on an SC, and don't forget Alertblau if you like darker blues!

[porsche930dude]

minerva blue is one of my favorites. then and you can get add flare to it with white or black porsche script

[SWoolley]

I'm not backdating bumper or rockers so I think the script wouldn't look period correct...just my 0.2

I really miss my Dolphin Gray 911.......I would paint another car this color again without hesitating!

[SWoolley]

Exactly what I'm looking for but maybe a hair darker. Thanks R K T!
