Hello Roadsters, I am thinking about going with the Summit Racing FFR Build Paint Scheme. Has anyone done the same scheme?
- Killer Gray Metallic 2-Stage Base Coat/Clear Coat/Viper Red Stripes.

I almost did that paint scheme. I saw the Summit car in person and those colors look really nice.
The problem with Cobras, is that they all look good. So every time I see one, I think it is the color. I ended up black with dark silver.

Yes you are so right. I must have changed paint schemes 10X, however I haven't seen this combo at any of the many car shows I've been to. Thank you for your post.

The color is such a personal thing. I go along with the statement I haven't seen one I didn't like. Leaning toward Ford Autumn Sunset with white stripes myself. But by the time its actually painted who knows. Get a sample chart and look at it in all light conditions. I tend to favor colors that look different in bright sun vs shade myself. Stripes if your doing them are very dependent on primary color, some like subtle contrast others striking. Its your car and your choice.
