Im not sure i understand the question????? Why not just spray it the way its meant to be painted like in the 2nd pic? As for colours, just get it matched to the panels you have(chinese??). Just because the chinese panels are RWB doesn't mean they've used original colours.

If its the same as the second picture then the lines wont match up and it will look odd i think...
obviously i would like the original scheme but i dont think it would line up right

As DM said,take a panel to a paint supplier and get them to match it.

The lines are different yes but not by much, get some fineline masking tape and run the lines on the tank to match the fairing so you can visualise what it will look like.
