Default Any Arena Red 944/951's out there?

I'm in the process of repainting my Maraschino Red 951 and I'm really not that thrilled with the color. I've seen what I believe to be Arena Red on 911's and Carrera's and love the color. The color is close enough where I won't bother with the engine compartment but will do all the jambs. Looking for pictures and info from anyone who has done this before and what year paint code did you use.

I think your car and Duke's Rainforest Green are the prettiest cars on the board.

Pretty sure Andial's is Garnet which is what my car started as in 1986. Garnet is a very nice color that is similar but not nearly as much pearl content.

Go to www.paintscratch.com and look for 1996 Porsche colors. 1997 is a different code but I cannot tell the difference in colors.
