Paint colours

Post by Stevengt750 »

Hi guys does anybody know an equivalent modern colour to the Suzuki lime green metallic code 278. when I went to my local paint supplier they couldn't find the code to mix the paint as their computer doesn't have records for early paint codes I know I can get it from RS paint but was hoping get it local and a bit cheaper cheers Steve

Hi Steve

I have used Peugeot Lacerta Jaune code KAR. It is a great substitute for Grace Lime if you are doing a repaint (and significanty cheaper than RS)

Cheers Martin :) I'm pleased to say that the side stripes were also painted as I couldn't get on with the decal kit

Can't remember if the 550K I did was a Ford or Peugeot colour, TBH.
