I also like the combo - and agree with every re: Chrome Trims ( l just wanted to rip them off myself).
Here’s a photo l took in 2013. It’s definitely a Metallic colour - so it must be 387H or 396G. I think 387H.
I didn’t have my Tunis Beige 250SL back then or l might have taken more photos. My Blue 280SL is Two-Tone with a 387H Hardtop. Mine generally looks darker than the Museum car but the lighting was so bright in the museum it is possible that it is the same (you can see the hubcaps appear darker than the roof due to the lighting).
Sully, l also toy with the idea of going two-tone with my 250SL, but l was thinking Black or Dark Brown Hardtop. I do believe a Metallic body should have a Metallic Hardtop though - so that rules out Black or Brown.
Guess l will leave it as is 😊
