Default Wanna paint my S2K... thinking orange!!!

So i plan on having my '03 S2K painted over the winter and i'm thinking of going with a orange/gray/black combo... I'm trying to decide what color orange to go for and theres a couple of different cars that i like with that specific color.

I'll be buying the materials and somebody else will be doing the work, now what kinda paint/materials do you guys recomend? the car will be a weekend cruiser next year and will be stored on winters if that matters...

also anybody knows any of these cars' color paint codes??? i like the KTM's orange the best but i can't find a code anywhee to save my life...
thanks!


Here's the KTM X-Bow



the Lotus Elise here:


And last the Caparo T1:

nah i don't like the Imola orange. it's kinda played out since it resembles the burn orange/copper color of 350z, cobalt, neon etc.i want it bright, specifically the KTM's orange color.
