Dave,
There was a killer thread of Gulf Orange cars on the Pelican 911 tech forum about a month ago. Including this gorgeous Boxster conversion

Here's a quickie. It looks better if you squint your eyes.

Dave, I think it would look really nice if you do it more subtley, as in maybe not a big stripe but rather do the recessed areas of your Fuchs wheels in the gulf orange and maybe the rocker panels and both valances too. then smooth the roof and do it in solid blue. My .02 ...

Sounds pretty nice, but again, we need some Photochop examples to help me picture it.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I slammed it to the ground with photoshop and I can't find the original.
Not exactly the correct colors.

Kinda Like the Opposite of this.. imagine light blue car with orange wheels and rockers/valances..more like a "nod" to Gulf but not a replica. Maybe even orange bumpers would work.

Hmm, that might work well...

I was considering an orange arrow (vinyl sticker) for my car, like on the Targa Florio 908s. I once saw a pic of Brian Redmond with one of those, and the image really stuck in my head. The arrow started at the back of the car, and went along the top (offset to the right of center) and terminated in an arrowhead about 2/3 of the way up along the front deck lid.

Mine would only be on the blue-painted areas, not on the roof.


....Have you tried playing with the 914 stuff in Bus Selecta ? That might give you an idea of what it would look like.
