The original paint job's idea came from a Marlboro Red box & a divers flag, which doesn't have any pearl in it, if that makes a difference.

As some may/may not know, we are currently redoing our Cafe. New power and new paint. Our Cafe has the 90 MPH paint scheme. We are not going to paint the interior area as it is still in very good shape - only redoing the dash with some carbon fiber and some very small detail items inside. We are completely repainting the outside i.e. hull, deck, drives, tabs, platform, etc...
My question is - can a person play with the sacred Cigarette 90 MPH paint? I am considering putting some pearl in the red. The pearl would not show from 10+ foot, only when you are upon it. Would a Cig owner be turned off by this? Or should I not goof around with the paint scheme and leave it a solid red? I'm checking out samples this Thursday and am really on the fence.
What do you think?

@ Smitty - I can not put pearl in the white without painting interior as well, the white rolls from interior to exterior.
@ BLee - the shade of red is not changing... i think?
I will check out the samples in a couple days and try to start posting some pics soon.
Thanks everyone!

Stretch the white on the hull sides to have more of a forward lean to it. It'll make the boat look longer, more modern and still keep the heritage of the 90mph scheme. The stretched Cig logo will go with it, too.
I love the paint scheme, but just not wild about the big block of white that breaks up the hull sides.
And like everyone else is saying.... make it the way you want!
