That color works really well on there!  It kinda reminds me of a cal-look Beetle or something - very surfy-looking of a color, but looks great on something sportier too!

Glad you like to color gentlemen.  Mine isn't quite the same shade, but this was the inspiration.

JC, when I saw that color it reminded me of the old IROC series cars. Looks great.

 

Thanks Kurt.  I'll build an IROC one of these days, been collecting parts and reference for awhile.

I dig the color! No reason all Porsches need to be red, silver, yellow or black. I did Monogram's old snapper 911 RSR in bright pearl pink! I've heard a few choice comments, over the years, for that. ?

Glad you guys approve of the color.  Paint is curing ahead of detail painting of the body.

Thanks Shay.  I did the window trim with Sharpie and a very fine point calligraphy pen. The tail and side trim was masked and air brushed.

Excellent built...What chassis you used?...It looks like it has a built in lower part of both the transmition and the engine block. What size of plastic tubing you used for both, the roll bar and engine parts? ...Please, let me know...

Thank you Simon.  Fujimi has issued several of their Porsche 911 kits as curbsides with the bottom half of the engine molded in-place.  I like to use those chassis, suspension and interior tubs to simplify the build process and add the detailed EM (Enthusiast) kit parts to them.  This thread will give you an idea which kit where issued as curbside kits.
