paint opinions

I would like opinions on this paint scheme on my next z1 project. I'm thinking ford gt 40 baby blue and orange
bike is 75 z1 and will have polished henry abe 7 star wheels and the hand bent yosh pipe. I'm burned out on restorations
I wish I could get it photo shop before I have it painted
What do we think

That could look cool! Stripe all the way down the tail. Could change up the colors too.

imho,
it would best be done in 73 z1 style graphics with the blue replacing the factory brown,and the orange going where the orange goes :evil: ...
that would tie them both together.

thats my .02 can't wait to see where you go with it.

Greg, it's hard to picture the colors on a bike, when your looking at a car
If you have the Paint program on your computer you can take a picture of a bike & paint it a differat color of choice, to get a better visual
but you have to have a more steady hand than I do :S :S
Maybe Patton will chime in, or OMR, they seem to be pretty good at Photo shopping

Well I think it'll take balls to paint it baby blue. There is a auto part store paint supply that will put any color in a rattle can for $20. I might have that done and spray paint an old tank and tail see how it looks first.
I'd hate to spend $1000 on a custom job and not like it.

This is my second thought.

No Greg! No! Your not a Richard Petty relative are you? Or a Ford GT member?
White Diamond Pearl! Or Silver Metalic Pearl. Checker flag trim, 1970's GM black pin stripes? 1 - 1/4" , 1 - 1/8".
I could do a lot of different stuff. Do it right and real! Car paints, urethanes, with clearcoat!
Check out TCP global, they have all the stuff!
Wait till you see my paint! Ford white glacier ice pearl 2014 color!

Or Silver Metalic Pearl. Checker flag trim ...........................
That has my attention

Leon, I'm with you on that idea. That baby blue that you speak of its sextastic. Eddie's bike gave me wood at straight blue, Ford blue.
