We have a 911 in at the mo in yellow, just had a new side put in, so may have a dabble with the colour .

Obviously, black and yellow go well, as the hundreds of cars and bikes that have used that color scheme suggest.  Personally, I would try something a little different.  Maybe the tangerine color that porsche uses or one even a bit more red than tangerine.  Then, maybe something like that good old British tan on the interior or the kind of orangey color of baseball glove leather?

Hey Keith. Sorry, but I haven\'t really found the time to do it for you.
Recently broke up with my girl, and am now hunting for a house and furniture, so have a lot on my mind.
Sorry mate.
