new color

hey there i have an 83 gs model
right now i have the kind of auburnish color on my car with the racing stripe on it and pinstripping all around
but my roof has quite a bit of sun fading and it looks UGLY!
so im thinkin i might try goin with the new 350Z color the like nicer orange color, but not bright orange its like a nice dark orange with fleck, it would be so nice
what do u think would that be a good color, considering my interior is red

Here's a quickie - ran out of motivation near the end, and yes, this is a sloppy job. All the same, hope it helps. (this is actually my car before bodywork/paintjob last year. I did a mockup of the various dark blues to figure out which direction I wanted to go.

I like it, it would look awesome with rims gunmetal in the center with a polished lip.

Yup, I want to go with the burnt orange nissan color too. Been thinking about it since I first saw the 350z with it. Right now I have a greyish color with red pinstriping but it is chipped and bubbled in a couple of places (someone did a cheap paint job on it) and it is hard to blend and match it again because the paint is so thick!
