I am having some parts painted before fitting to my FL2, however I would like to know which version of black it is. The log book just says black, no real help there. Nothing in the service book or owners info tells me.

How do I find out which colour black my car is ?

First registered 04/07 if that helps

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Chris

Have a look in an art shop at the oil paints to give you an idea of just the basic shades of black. these are being sold to artists whos base instinct is too mix colours. I am sure the felt tip faries could come up with an infinate number of shades of any colour from the nauseating to the stunning.

There is also a VIN plate under the bonnet on the strut above the radiator grille that gives the exact specificuation code, the colour and the paint code. This is the one from my RRS


There is a similar one in the same place on my 1996 Defender as well How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?
