Default What colour is my Lude ?

Howdy guys.

Just a quick question if I may ?

I have been trying to find the correct Colour Code / Technical Paint Name for my lude and cant seam to find it anywhere.

From my research online it says the colour code should be on the inside of the drivers door, the sticker is indeed there but its in chinese

Heres a couple of pics of it.. closest I can put it down to is like a Anthrasite, its like a black with lots of sparkly silver in it.





Anyway heres the pics if anyone knows the colour code so I can get some paint or what its called etc I would appreciate it.

Cheers.

Matt.

Nighthawk black pearl?

I'm not 100% sure since your car is EDM. They have different colors over there.

Check out this thread for colors on USDM 4th gens:

BTW, Nice car & welcome to HT.

Open driver's door and there should be a label with a paint code. It's not chinese though It should be like letter-two digits-optional letter.

Your drivers door is on the opposite side though so you may wanna check the passengers door jamb for it. Just a thought. I cant really make out the label you posted too well though.

if the car was made in japan, why would it have chinese writing on it?

man japanese people don't speak chinese, they have 3 separate forms of writing. hiragana, katakana, and kanji. what you have listed on your door there is katakana, used when referring to words/language borrowed from other cultures.

and that sticker only talks about your tires

Howdy Guys

Cheers for all your advice everyone.

Thanks Sabbotage for your input, you were right mate, in the passenger door I found the following info :

Colour : NH-561P
Int Colour : Type A
Si VTEC LSD


Demonlude got it right, it is Phantom Grey Pearl (NH-561P).

Thanks everyone

Matt
