color codes
« on: 29 September 2015, 06:45:28 pm »
Hi all.
I'm looking to do some extra body work on my 1998. I have some side panels that I wish to paint in the original color. I have done some research but not really getting the result I was wishing for. I have the sticker under the seat but this only has the letter B on it for my color code. My bike is matalic black. Does anyone know of where I can get the code from. Really want to started on spraying.

Thanks

Thanks for the link. This is one I have seen before. I get that these are yamaha color codes but they can't be used by any color mixing company's. On my label under the seat it has only the letter B. I have had it scanned to find out its not just Black it has matalic in it. I think the code I was given today was Nissan Gt1.
There must be somewhere out there where we can get the right codes. I want to keep the original color on the bike.

Thanks
