Can anybody help me identify the paint code for this eg or at least tell me how I can mix it.

Most colors like that are one-offs where someone just mixed a batch until it looked the way he/she wanted it. There's not really a code, per se. We can sit here and speculate about what it may be, but your best bet is just to take it to a painter that does good custom work and say "I want something along this line."

Sucks. I did go to a painter and he wasn't much help. Ended up mixing a powder blue type color.

Start with some paint chip books at a paint store or body shop. Find one thats close and adjust from there. Some that are jumping out to me right away are...

Ford grabber blue


Bmw laguna seca blue


Add more white, maybe a little yellow.

It looks like a matte finish, very similar to plasti dip to my eyes.

Probably actual paint, it looks like it has a sheen to it if you look at the front fender. Could just be wet though.

GT3 RS comes to mind also:




I'd trade one of these for a lot full of the other two posted

Honestly, I'd suggest picking a code-available (factory) color. That way if you ever need any more work done you have at least a fighting chance of getting a reasonable match. Get something one off and that's pretty much it... you're in for a repaint if you need a fender touched up or something (although the guy in the example you posted clearly gives no ***** about fenders).

Keep in mind that matte/flat/non metallic/very basic colors like these require that the bodywork and paint work be spot-f'ing-on. They will show every flaw and be very sensitive to any dings you might gather if you plan on actually using the car. Metallic paints are really good at diffusing or refracting light and hiding small imperfections.
