    colin. write your colour choices on small bits of paper & make a little tombola up.... whatever colour comes out will be the one... then nobody is to blame.

    I think the ferrari yellow will photograph a lot better than the orange in my opionion, especially looking at trackday photos I've seen
    If Carlsberg did Motor clubs, then IDMC would probably be the best motor club in the world.

    Yellow will look much better against the carbon and grey inside

    id stay away from waterbased metalic paints, imola yellow ( audi ) or dakar yellow ( BMW ) both are similar shades and solid colour rather than metalic, just my opinion.
    success is only limited by a weak mind

    I've had a car painted in waterbase so easy to do and finish is immaculate I prefer it over 2k and I'd guess waterbase is lighter to!

    are you for real? 2k is 2 coats=done.
    water base is 4to5 coats of colour then 2 coats of clear (2k)laquer.

    not to mention the drying time

    colin, you could go to a paint place and have a look at the std RAL (?) colours.. then its cheap to touch up or repair..
