    think its "old people wipe down nursing home chairs green"

    that really the best colour you guys could decide on? looks horrible!

    Pics of cars that are being painted? as im sure could suggest some much better things to spend the money on than paint unless they are already looking amazing

    Not the nicest colour, but instead of following on with more lame insults because one of the bigger boys said something mean first..

    Contact a paint wholesale company / motor factors. They will have books and books of colour chips and there will almost certainly be something so similar to this you won't be able to tell the difference. It doesn't actually matter what the exact code used on this car is.

    My localish one is called A R Davies Motor factors, they aren't the cheapest on price necessarily, but its a good place to go and look at paint and get a few codes to shop around with.

    Dont want anyone to think im saying it looks horrible just to be a cunt, im just passionate about seeing people build awesome drift cars and would rather help them with ideas to make them look awesome than letting someone spend loads of money painting something a nasty ass colour.

    yea, but you did paint a car brown and call it the Turd tho (it was actually really good)

    Problem is the same kinda people come back in a year or two asking what the car is worth and expecting a big figure as they've ploughed lots of money into it, then get stroppy because you tell them it's worth fuck-all due to the stevie-wonder paint job.

    I get what your saying but you cant presume every person who asks a question will be back in a couple of years asking that. I don't want to open a whole can of worms I just think that some of the responses are harsh if not out of order! Its enough to put people off joining this forum/'community'

    First thought:

    Sorry, I know it looks like a sweet car in that pic, but the FIRST thing that colour reminds me of is this :D

    It looks similar to a Nissan colour used on the Figaro, I believe it's called Mint Green. I'll see if I can find a code out tomorrow at work
