New Paint Again...
The purple just wasn't doing it for me, so I had her repainted. Again... This is much better. I'll get her out in the sun for some good shots later, and (hopefully) my decals will be on the way soon. Same color as the '00 yellow 929. 3 stage paint. Yellow with a pearl. Still have to "tweak" somethings, but all in all she's close...

Nice. Either one makes it easy for friends or photographers to see you at the track, but I like the new color better than the purple.

It'll just be standard OEM look with smaller decals on the lower. Should look pretty good.

I think the stock RC decals will look sweet on the yellow.
