MikeRL411 Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 Going to body shop on monday, I need a good sample so they can color match the paint. I was thinking of painting my car 240z orange. If you guys can help Ill apriciate it.:D Really good body / paint shops have a "recipie book" giving the formulas for matching factory colors. If you could get the Nissan paint code number it would simplify the match, otherwise the shop will have to thumb through a paint sample book and you will have to say "close enough". Get the number in case you need to touchup of repaint later after some idiot does a parking lot number on your paint job. Quote Link to comment
ppeters914 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Here's one place to find the color code: http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/ Even better, I bet if you search for Z car websites, they'll have the color code listed. Oh, gee, look what I found: http://www.zhome.com/History/colors.html http://www.zhome.com/History/ZColorGallary/index.html Quote Link to comment
