Could someone who owns a Japanese import in Sonic(mica) blue please tell me what the paint code is? It should be located on a plate on one of the strut towers along with the VIN # and other information. Thanks guys

This may be useless as mines a sonic blue UK MY99, but its 74F, and I've just had Halfords make me a can while I waited (fancied colour coding the orange wedges this weekend!)

PS. They didn't have 74F listed as sonic blue, they call it New 555 rally blue - hope I haven't f*cked up.

your best to have them chip your paint. I had a bit of trouble getting the right white if that makes sense!!

Thanks, was hoping it was 74f.

Yep did the same thing at halfords a few weeks ago, 74F is known as new rally blue by them. I sprayed the orange wedges and put on the grey plastic primer before I spray the 74F on. Turn out quite well .

Chrisp,
did the same as you this afternoon plus finished off with clear laquer - spot on colour match! (74F/new 555 rally blue)

chrisp

yep I put a couple of coats of clear laquer just finish it off. They just hide into the background now rather than stick out now .
