Colours
#1

Purly in the interest of science, I took a picture of my 968, took a picture of some smarties, and colour matched the Porsche to the colour of the smarties. Here are my findings. Note that this isn't an exact science, more of an approximation <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />



But I personally like the orange lol.

Speaking of colours, does anyone know of a good place to buy touchup paint for Porsche colours? The dealer is the first thing that comes to mind, but are there other options as well.

You can buy spray cans of Porsche colors from

www.paintworldinc.com

I have found the match and paint quality to be excellent.

That's a fun contribution to science! <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> I like the uniqueness factor in all of them. Then again, I'm a sucker for a rare color.



Ren - http://www.paintscratch.com/ So easy to order, and product is perfect.



Best,

Ditto on paintscatch. They will do small bottle with brush or, best yet, spray cans. I have used both. Spray can for my splitter, worked perfect but I failed to clearcoat it and it has chipped quite a bit.

Some more colours, this time of a 968 turbo, with spoiler <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

I got this picture off the net. I think the pink might be a little bit TOO bright heh.

Thanks,



I love the 2 blues and I saved the "bubble gum" pink for a screen saver.



Very nice work.
