Not too bad,my dog jumped on me while i was machine polishing the car, went through the paint!!!! Had me squashed between the fence and the car. One in a million chance of it happening.

Had a company put a magic eye thingy on the car...and that could only get 95% match and the company said they wouldnt be able to get it close enough!!!

I have spent many hours trying to find your colour and I am sorry but can not find out anything at all. I have been through the paint shop lists and can find the chassis no. either side of yours, no trace at all of your car. I wonder if it was the press car and this is why it is not on the lists, another thing that makes me think this, is your car for such an early one has the later front end shape. But this is only speculation. Will keep trying.

Thanks for trying mate, i dont think im gona have much luck getting a code. Not really sure what my options are. I believe it had the later front end and T350 light conversion done at fiberon, iv contacted them and they got hold of the guy that sprayed it but i dont think they kept any records. Its great having a one of a kind but its a pain in the ass also. Again, thanks for trying. PS i owe you a beer for all your efforts so if you see me at a show ect...tap me on the shoulder.

Respray time.

Or colour it in.

PMPL...it really is that colour. Thought about a respray but i love the colour it already is. I think im gona take a bit off the car and leave it with a paint manufacturer or some company of that ilk and they can try to make something up to match.Not sure what comes of the car easily tho!!! PS the damage is only really a thinning of the paint but I KNOW its there if you know what i mean.

Have you taken the car to a bodyshop to see it they can mix some paint to match?
You could take it to ben @ carizma melton.

There are a couple of auto paint suppliers in the nottingham area, think il give them a try. The main problem is which bit of the car to leave?

Peter Wheelers dog, Ned, allegedly bit a chunk out of the Chim clay model and 'designed' the indicator recesses.

Hence Clarksons one time comment that Porsche design department has less talent than PWs dog.

Thanks for that oh wise one!!! oh and i agree with clarkson!!!
