I can not find paint code under the bonnett

[millsjq]

I just purchased N420 sills for my 09 Vantage and I am getting them painted. I pulled off off the "radiator" cover that is held by T30 bolts, but I can not find the sticker. See attached photo.

My car is Jet Black and I assume the proper paint code is: 1328 but wanted to verify.

Just seen your post, if you can give me the last 6 digits of the VIN I can confirm the paint code.

Steve, My last 6 digits of my VIN is: C12692

Thanks,

[Jockman]

1328 comes up as Modena Black on the Dupont website if that's any use

Are you sponsored by the Dupont website? Hardly a paint code thread goes by without you mentioning them

[millsjq]

I sure hope I did not screw up, my sill are being painted later today or tomorrow and I gave them the 1328 paint code. It was the only code for Jet Black I found on-line. Not sure why my car does not have the sticker by the radiator bracket.

You should be ok - the Modena Paint Code is the same as the Jet Black one.

They could conceivably be the same colour !!

Georgeous H, I was in bed with my hair net on last night and as I reached over to cradle my pipe for the night I noted in the AM Monthly mag that a V600 le mans was up for sale ?? Is this the car you are after ?? If so I shall get you a few more details later

I've seen one this one for sale - http://pistonheads.com/sales/3360742.htm

Is it the same one?

And yes, it is my dream car I could even forgive the manual box and fixed roof.

Sadly, I don't have a spare £200k to invest in a car right now, else it would already be on my drive

Jack,

I can confirm the paint code for Jet Black is AST1328D, the D obviously stands for DuPont.

I hope this helps

Maybe if I rented out the passenger seat for £1000/mile. Might be able to afford it then

You're not doing a right good job getting these details Jockman! I'm awaiting them anxiously

Apologies Georgeous - it is a company in Geneva selling it - I shall forward the name and any hyperlink (if there is one) when I get home.

I know you are just being curious

And yes, I just like to research these, hopefully they won't appreciate at a rate faster than I can earn

George - it's a bit chavvy looking isn't it? All aftermarket looking bodykit and ducts.

Chavvy? Behave!

The road presence it has is phenomenal, not to mention the noise That supercharger whine is just fantastic.

You like your cars to whine? I can introduce you to a few people who like to whine, just pop her in the passenger seat and away you go...

Is this the stunning blonde that was previously discussed in another thread? In which case, you may pass my details on!

On a more serious note, yes, I do love a good supercharger whine. I bet that twin supercharged 7 litre Lister XJS you posted about a while back just sounds immense.
