I actually had to adjust my monitor because it looked Guards Red, now I can see the orange. It looks extremely good, I wouldn't have guessed that to be a DIY job. I love the front shot in the garage, that's one of my favorite angles on the 951. Also noticed that you no longer have to favor one side of the car in your pictures

What paint and color code?
I'm probably going to do Continental Orange on my 968.

Should've specified, sorry...what brand of paint and brand specific code? I've been having trouble finding cross references for some colors.

Looks great!

Thanks!

Looks good, I like the non usual color choice.
I would have filled in the front markers also.
Nice to see another garage paint job turning out nice!
