I dont know the color code, but I think it would be much more original to go through and pick your own personal color close to something you like.

well, if im going to drop 3 grand on some nice paint, i'd rather look at the car painted, visualize, and pick, then flipping through a book and picking a paint color 1in X 1in, hoping its going to come out the way i want it. im not looking for opinion for originallity, i should have been more specific.

Milano red is a common, well known Honda color.

I think it's different than if someone goes on a hunt to find some rare, hard to find color code so he can be different. Then others go and try to bite off his style.

For example, in my case - I put in hours of research to find a rare 1970's Mercedes Benz color. And when I found it the right hue, I had to put even more work to find and verify the color code. THEN once I found the code, I had to convert that to a modern day PPG code. So yeah, I might be alittle peeved if someone asks me to just hand over that work.

It's preference, I guess. Some willingly share that info - some are more secretive.

The owner is (was?) one^g. Message him to find out. Since he sold the car he might be more willing to let you know. On the other hand, if I knew, I would not tell you.

The whole point of building a car, is to have something unique. Something you created, something you have put your stamp on, and something to be proud of.

You don't just go out and try to duplicate other peoples cars!


Lanthrax had the right idex. Paint the EK candy pick, damn sure no-one has the ***** to duplicate it


But hey, what would i know, i'm Irish

dude how hard can it be to come up with your own form of "dockers" tan??

just MAKE something that is as close to it as you can, and i guarantee if your not color blind it will come out looking indistinguishable from the hatch you showed us

I could swear I've seen an extremely similar color on some kind of Hyundai or Kia SUV, might be worth looking into.
