RED Paint Match
Hi my storm is the RED one( fast!!!) is there a car colour that is a close match to this colour? ( touch up paint required etc)
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!
Re: RED Paint Match
I should imagine Citroen 2CV red would be a match, in performance if not in colour!!!

told you not to but oh no you knew better
Re: RED Paint Match
Look on the subframe for colour code - should be R157 - go to a motor factors shop like this one local to me > http://www.gramic-supplies.co.uk and tell them the code.

Re: RED Paint Match
for sure a motor factor will be able to mix you up a match but usually the minimum is 1/2 litre which is perhaps a bit much for touching up, surely Honda will do a touch kit, correct colour, little brush, clear coat that sort of thing.
I've now gone all European and bought a KTM Superduke GT and Aprilia RSV1000R
