What colour is my ZS?

haGGard · 10-08-10, 07:38 PM

Tried a google but not had much luck. I'm guessing its not a very common colour (obviously everyone wants the blue or yellow, and rightly so too!)

Its a sort of dark blue colour. Only reason i want to know is if by any chance the bigger hatch spoiler pops up on ebay in the right colour i might have a bid.

Cheers

Get the paint code off the nearside door pillar. It will be three letters and it can be worked out from there.

Looks like Anthracite to me. Not that rare to be honest.

RudeDogg1 · 11-08-10, 05:46 PM

forgot ur glasses southside? lol its clearly some kind of dark blue

haGGard · 11-08-10, 05:46 PM

Paint code is LQW so thats anthracite. Yea i'm not bothered about the rarity, just didn't want to be waiting around for ages for a spoiler to pop up on eBay

Cheers!
