I'm in the process of building out one of the old Fly Porsche 908/02 car kits.

I want to use a white body for the car and detail out the livery like in the below picture. The decals are available from Brian Patto, so that part should be fairly straightforward.

I plan to use Tamiya paint and my question is what white paint to use on this car. Right now, I have Bright White, but while I was picking it up this afternoon at one of our local hobby shops, I noticed that Tamiya also makes a Racing White color, which is much less bright and looks like it might have some cream/yellow in it.

So, which paint would you recommend for the white body on this car? I have no experience painting cars. Thanks.

Those pics look like more of a bright white.

Then Bright White it will be. I was leaning that way based on the pics of the 1:1 car, but needed confirmation. Thanks.
