I searched the forum and one of our friends on the C7 section used this color for his Sebring Orange and I thing it matches very well.
I ordered two markers and think I can get the whole thing done butt will probably order a third.

Looks amazing!! I might have to do the same thing. Really wish it was an option for red without getting 3LT.

Looks great.
Is something like this "permanent" or does it require periodic upkeep?
