Cool Brazen Orange T/A ??

Hey there ladies/gentlemen.
I was wondering what to possibly paint my T/A. It's black/black now, T-Tops car. I was thinking something like GTO's Brazen Orange, C6's Jet Stream Blue, 5th generation Camaro SS Hugger Orange, 4th Gen.Camaro SS Hugger Orange. C6's Pikes Peak White ( or whatever it's called)
Any pictures or insight on these colors for the T/A

Ive never seen a a Trans Am in any of those colors . I can tell one thing, if you eplore more into Jetstream Blue , pad your jaw, because it will crash to the ground when you hear how much that color is to properly duplicate .

That's an intriguing shade also. Is it from House of Kolor? I've seen their "tangerine dream" paint and it's semi like that. Metallic orange shade.
If I did anything with Orange schemes, I'd opt to do the interior in white. Orange/White is really classy IMO.

Wouldn't GM have Jet Stream Blue readily available? It's probably more expensive that way, but I don't know. I sure like it on the C6's. Or, maybe the Steel Grey the ZR-1's have.

The TA in that pic is HOK tangelo pearl .

AFAIK Jetstream is not available in a single stage premix alternative version like alot OEM tricoat paints I know of.

If you want less costly alternative to Jetstream , with an equally cool shade of blue, look into GM's Euro Opel Arden Blue . Its a color used only on the VXr and OPC Opels and Vauxhals .

That's a pretty sweet orange shade. I'd do a metallic flake or maybe pearl or both. The Atomic Orange is a nice shade also, slightly darker. The WS6 pics look awesome!

Beautiful WS6's. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for white Trans/Ams.
