jamesmark Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Ask Ric on here, he done his dash panels. I do not know if they were facelift colour as he is pre, but they came out good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Any decent bodyshop with a spectrophotometer can do this. Take your best panel (least fade) with you and ask them to scan it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine are have already been painted, I’ll try and borrow one off a local member and take to my local paint suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some machines will return the closest match from their pre-existing recipe database of factory reproduction colours, others will generate a one-off recipe. Also, remember the manner and environment in which the new paint is applied will change the way it looks. Which ever paint system is used for the new mix will also have an effect on accuracy. Just have a good chat with your bodyshop and tell them exactly what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
