My car is surf blue very light blue i would like to do some of it in orange like gulf gt 40 but my blue is lighter so would need lighter shade of orange any suggestions Cheers

there was a post about this colour scheme a couple of days ago

here it is - linky

tbh IMO the only cars that suited this colour scheme were the Gulf Porsche's

^ and the GT40.
unless gulf are sponsoring you then no. its not even a replica of gulf sponsored racing car. leave well alone

Go white not orange...

Have a look at the RAL codes for inspiration.

And personally I think Gulf colours rock on a 7, but not sure what they would be like if you made everything a lighter shade.

An early 1970s Ford Cortina colour Signal Orange is very close to the gulf collour.
