Paint

Hi I have a zermatt silver FL2, and some Censored has taken a big chunk of paint out the side indicator housing. Big Cry
It looks a different silver to the bodywork.

Anyone got any clue where I might get touch up paint or has anyone tried to paint it?

Cheers Thumbs Up

Yeah that's fine for the bodywork colour but like I say, the plastic indicator housing is a different shade of silver from the main zermatt silver.

hmmmmmm maybe it has all the paint codes somewhere on the vehicle/handbook....

Get your local chipsaway guy in to have a look and give a no obligation quote. In my experience the guy down here in north Glasgow is really good and managed to do a repair to the tailgate of my last RRS that James could not find when he took the car in as a partex against the TDv8. And yes I was honest and told him all about the repair. The colour match of the Giverny Green paintwork was perfect. All these repair guys HATE silver though as it is one of the most difficult colours to match without showing the new paint How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?

It looks like ALL fl2's have the same colour silver side vent.
Anyone know what colour touch up paint that is or tried anything?

Anybody know if there are any Freelander2's being broken at scrappies anywhere in the UK? How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?

Try this reference from e-bay. Not sure if it is the right side for you but worth a look (its the offside) eBay Item No. 320300476432

If it is what you want and you win the bid, please forward my finders fee later!

Good luck
