Guys,

The search function appears to be broken again so does anyone know where I can find the paint code for Portofino Blue? Need to get my front clam resprayed given the number of stone chips!

Help much appreciated.

Portofino Blue came up recently - can't help with the paint code but check the "Portofino Blue" that some Fiat Coupes (and possibly other models) were painted.

HTH.

Good luck with that.
That ppg code is for the old solvent based paint, not the current water based stuff.
Also the noble portofino is a noble only colour, not taken from another make.
My car was portafino couldnt get a good match, ended up having to paint the whole car.

Hi, we have painted 2 or 3 Noble front clams now in Portofino blue, with waterbased paint and managed to get a spot on match on all of them. The problem with all Noble colours is the shades all seem to be slightly out from the "scheme" mixing colour, so we have to tint the colour to match each car separately for a perfect match.

And still haven't uploaded some recent pictures! The teaser shots that I've seen were from, I think, nearly 2 years ago!

Have you finished?

In a word....no. frown I havent driven the noble for over 2 years and counting, have done a few more things to it, getting bits made but currently have two houses to refurb and a large project on the go work wise so have been working 7 days a week.
On a good note, the milage is good now. smile and the insurance is only £120 a year for 0 miles.
Hopefully when winter comes I will get a chance to get out in the garage and finish it off.
As soon as it is done will deffo post lots of pics.
