      I like that color. That's not an original color is it?

        Yes it is and was an incredible hassle to locate the codes. It is called "Rover Dark Grey". The paint is all imron.

              Agreed. Also, original paint color on what years?? Now you have me thinking...

                Please share the paint code.... I've been researching this myself for about a year off and on now while a vehicle is sitting waiting to be painted but haven't been able to track down the code. Here's site with code listings that's helpful but I didn't see "Rover Dark Grey" on here... I had to do this when tracking down the "Deep Bronze Green" color for my vehicle.

                    paint

                    I mixed this up for kevin, its the same paint I used on a recent build. Kevin wanted it in spray cans so he could do the inside without completely tearing it apart. Looks like it turned out really well!

                      Thanks Ike, I had some of the paint shipped to tower paints in wisconsin and put in 2 stage aerosols to do the bulk head and small interior pieces, it worked perfectly. The rest is being done by my local body shop. Ike has the codes.
