What's up guys?

I recently scored 2 C5R Revell Kits off of Ebay. One being Earnhardt's 24 hrs of Daytona C5R, and the other being the #63/64  Revell Germany Kit from 24 hrs of Le Mans (2001.)

I haven't been successful in finding the correct color of yellow to spray these two cars.  I do not have an airbrush, so I'm looking for the closest color of Tamiya Spray paint that would be correct. 

Which would be closer to the correct color, TS-16 Yellow.....or, TS-47 Chrome Yellow?  I have never used either of these, but from looking online, it seems that the Chrome Yellow would be the closer/darker of the two. Just wanting to see if anyone could suggest anything before I bought 2 or 3 cans of either of them.

 

Thanks,

Scott

Thanks. Also, from googling images of the ts-16 yellow, it looks too light, or lemon colored. I did notice that camel yellow looks way too dark, with a brown hue to it.
