Go figure. Its hard to find that color on this kinda car. Well. I got a lot to think about. I have a few months before I will paint it here. Need to find a good shop hats affordable around here... kind of an impossible task.

kinda like building a motor--- cheaper they offer to paint it the easier it will pop chip or fade... just from experience. Also just as a word of advice, get to know the painter first, before making your decision, check out his work, and any cool painter will sometimes hook up a customer with a graphic job or some pearl.... At least the painters i know--- they do.

Sorry bro.. i've looked everywhere for ya 'google, yahoo...etc.' So i talked to my painter "considering we are discussin new paint schemes"... He said the closest 'burnt orange' he can think of is the new honda color, or makin a new custom color. In which i'm sure there are more burnt orange 'shades' out there considering factory colors.... although any painter can mix a orange with what you prefer.

ive seen the burnt orange color on a 1990 5.0 driving around houston, and it does look pretty bad ***, but charcoal always looks clean and mean

I saw an old mercury driving around here with duponts "Molten Bronze". It was sweet... Looked just like a burnt orange. I am just trying to figure out what my car would look like with that color. Its not like there is a factory sn95 with that color. If all else. I will just go for it. Thateleanor was a nice shade of orange too. Orange and black too.
