I have a Monza red GTO 3R (2004) and want to get the front clam shell repainted.

It's at the body shop but they can't seem to find a good enough match for the colour....they have done several spray out cards but they just don't look the same. I know paint fades, etc but I still want it to be as close as possible.

Monza Red has 5 pages of paint codes!

Does anyone have the paint code for Monza Red?

And, does anyone have any paint or know of someone who has any paint?

Sorry to tell you this but the paint codes are useless mine was way out ,I had my clam painted at Jetstream it took a few tries but it's absolutely spot on .

I may just get the car wrapped instead....whats the view on wrapped cars and future value/saleability?

I had my Monza Red front clam done by a very good local body shop, it’s absolutely perfect. Happy to put you in touch with the guy who runs the place if you want to know how they got the match.
