The red is stunning, but that tobacco keeps turning my eye Not the worst decision to have to make… Both are lovely, my personal slight preference is the red, think the tobacco looks great on an early 911/912, but I think that the red accentuates the curves better on the 356. Your car, your choice, it’ll look amazing in either colour! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moospeed Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 Ah what the hell, it’s an evocation not a replica so may as well go for the Instagram crowd... Slam it, purple with gold wheels. You know it makes sense 🤪 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one tobacco that's the official Porsche one from the late 70s/80s and another from another brand (can't remember who!) that I pulled out for sampling - I should get all of the spray outs back on Friday 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 The Porsche dark metallic chocolate brown would look pretty interesting too.... think it's called macadamia metallic..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is one of their early ones, and I'm not sure the bumpers help the front to be honest. That's part of the reason I tried to break mine up with the driving lamps and logo - just hope it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbobalobox Posted March 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Nipped in last night on the way home - they've primed it once and checked for any imperfections. Door gaps are bang on and they're just working on the bonnets then it's down to me to confirm the colour! (apparently as long as the prep has been done properly, the painting is the easy bit) The front valance remains removable so I can get to the rads underneath if needs be. It's also semi-sacrificial should it ground badly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm picking up the final sprayouts tomorrow so I can check in the flesh/check in different lights. Currently the favourite from the 'shopped ones is green... ...or the blue. Possibly the blue 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
