Is that a model? Where did you find it?

I'd paint it as close to the original color as possible. Unless you strip it down and paint the entire body, the odd color will show up on the door jams/engine bay, and look kinda tacky.

what color is your interior ? there are some programs that would let you change the color of the car from a pic you took.

as far as I am concerned yellow is tooo boring and black kinda reminds of hearses or diplomatic convoys, I'd rather drive pink

Well short of the engine bay I can get the rest of it. I wont be taping anything but the windows if I can have it may way. Will be stripping it down to the metal everywhere and taking doors off....
