yellowy orange paint?

[anonymous-user]

The wheels , stripes , rollbar etc.. of my Fury are painted a sort of bright glossy yellow / orange colour, I need to respray the stripes but I'm having problems finding a good colour match.
I don't have a pic of the actual colour on the car (and ofc being a 15 year old kit car and not the primary body colour there's no paint code etc..), but it's almost identical to the colours in these images (maybe just a tad more yellow):

Can anyone suggest a possible colour it might be?
I need to be able to get spray cans as it's only the stripes I need to paint and I dont have a compressor etc...

thanks

The Lotus looks like Norfolk Mustard Yellow, I think the code is A64 but best check with a Lotus dealer parts dept.

Thanks that does look like the right colour & code.

Just had a quick look in Nexa Autocolour & Lotus Norfolk Mustard comes up as a solid colour code B05.
No listing under Lotus for A64 but it may be a low use colour they don't list.

Yes its Lotus Norfolk Mustard Yellow - I found a paint specialist locally and asked for that colour, he knew the colour and had some colour swatches and it looked like a perfect match so I had 2 spray cans made up, he showed me the paint in the tub being mixed and it had just the right amount of yellow and orange.

He also had cans of yellow primer to give it a good coloured base.

thanks again
