An attempt to bring some joy to a very troubled world starts here.... This week's top of the personalised/ vanity/private/ridiculous number plates on sale is....... You're welcome! 😁 (please don't ban me)

Thanks again - I've just gotta find a local company now🤔

I have one on a spare engine , what’s it worth to you ? Steve .

Agreed. It's the best way to match the actual colour of the paint as it is NOW, not as it may have been when new. Make sure they clean the patch they scan before they scan it as if it's dirty you may get an inaccurate result. I'm sure they will know that anyway. Happy hunting! 🤞

That's a Caterham isn't it? 😁

Well here is a picture of me on what I think (can't quite remember for sure) is my first vehicle, about 65 years ago, or more. Strange Vehicle.pdf

A guy that I went to school with in Consett. Worked in Nissan factory most of his life. Not Scottish in spite of his name 😁

The calendar is in their website but the season is ending, https://www.spa-francorchamps.be/en/next-events Ik was there in March with lotr , maybe next year in March again...

I might have a mosey on by if it's dry ish.. 😁

I wish I could There is somewhere with a list of future trackdays at Spa by any chance?

I guess he's Scottish but sadly no.. 😁

For one reason or another i find myself visiting here less and less i used to be on here 5 or 6 times a day but now it could be a full week inbetween visits So if anybody wishes to contact me for some black gold maybe best to contact me via whatsapp on 07523249617 but please dont message me after 9pm and before 8am because everybody needs a rest .

Yes

Scanning is the way to go as it will match your today's colour that may be different to a paint code if you did find one on the car and even gel coat eventually fades a bit.

Well, thanks everyone - I'll look for a company locally then

You have mail Matt

And of course it will be much quicker as a result. Win win.

And once you've found a decent paint shop that can supply you with a matching green paint get them to spray it orange job done.

So the plan is to convert aero to windscreen.. parts required windscreen with black mounts/mirrors heater assembly, ductwork,switch washers and wipers pipes linkage switch etc all mounting hardware. its also wide body,I currently have the fillet piece side windows if possible thanks dan

As @Captain Colonial says, you need to find your local version of a place like this. This is the one I've used near Bristol Colour Matching | Car Paint Warehouse https://share.google/pRfR5u7uPmZJG4yRL

The best solution is to go to a very good body shop that can scan your existing colour and give you a formula to match it, then contact a company (plenty on the web) who can manufacture and supply rattle cans in that colour, but ensure it’s paint suitable for going over gelcoat / GRP. There are more than 16m colours available, with humans able to differentiate 10m+. You do not want anything less than a match or it will annoy you every time you look at it.

Is anyone going to this trackday?

Good afternoon everybody, I was thinking about touching up the scratches on my Westfield but I don't know what colour it is. Is there a number somewhere on the car? or does anyone know how to match the colour properly? I think it's close to British Racing Green - but not quite. Any help would be appreciated Peter ( Chug)
