guyk@globaldial.com - Does anyone have any suggestions regarding the correct paint color for this GP500 racer? Nothing available seems to be right!

n/a - Thanks for your reply, much appreciated. Were you happy with the color/finished product - the blue appears to be metallic in the photos. I have also found a Testors color called Copenhagen Metallic blue which I will try if I can find it in Melbourne (Australia)!

I have mixed metallic blue (X-13 from Tamiya) + Royal blue (X-3) and clear green, yes clear green. This last color gives an incredible deep tone that in my opinion is very accurate. The color of the real bike in fact is a metallic blue, but has a green tone. So try to add some clear green and check the result.
