you could also go super old school...I think this would work since there's a similar contour to the Cayman's rear fenders (or are they quarter panels...? )

I'd go no livery sleeper. Plain white exterior, black interior, and black numbers.

I'd have to agree with ChrisFL, that would look wonderful.

Also in case you did not know, the Schroth belts are available in silver too.

All? Or just some? What about the Enduro belts?

Martini livery is getting a bit overplayed. How about something different? like Budweiser

Good thing I already decided to build this car, as these are really inspiring.
Keep 'em coming.

Is there a smilie for drooling? Silver and orange was one of my thoughts. Silver and black is nice but I like color (and am not really a Raiders fan).
Silver and a rich darker blue, too.

Enduro belts would be black only, but Profi II belts can be silver.

Silver is really nice because its different, but they do tend to show dirt and grime more than the other colors.

Silver = body, cage and rear wing.
Black = wheels, mirrors, and rear wing end plates.

As Matt said, keep it stealth. Some black and/or red decals could be used as accents.

And the Schroth enduro belts are the ONLY ones to get.

Hi Charlie
I saw a picture of your car running with Scott Leder's - very handsome (his, too)

Do you know if Schroth would do a simple custom color - say orange or yellow? Without requiring stupid money? I'm already at the stupid money stage.
And I don't mean who is doing the work - I mean the whole idea of building a race car.
