Is the paint code for P1 74F ?
Is that the same as the Terzo ?
I have my00 paint code 74F which doest look same as P1 colour.

 

yes yes and yes

they can all have the same code but there seems to be different shades. I parked mine next to a p1 and 22b and all three looked a different colour

 

Careful with them codes - I had a DBM turbo a while back and wanted to patch up a little chip on the front (so I tried it on the back first), terrible matchup, there were 2 other codes that were much closer when it dried (got the guy in the dealership to test the lot for me).

 

my car has the 74f paint code - the official subaru touch-up pen doesn't match it, nor does the Halfords one; they are slightly darker. (car is a MY00)

p.s. can't offer a solution - apart from getting a paint shop to mix some up for u ....!

 

Does this follow for all touch up pens from Subaru?? You have me worried now as I'm getting a pen for MY01 black ('08V') on Thursday...

 

Paint Codes

 

ian,
cant say - only tried the sonic blue one !!

 

it seems that way m8,ive used the red (559) touch up pen and that was darker when put on the car,but when i got a spoiler from DR Motorsport their paint was spot on.

very interestin' then !!!!!!!!!!!!
does subaru have different shade sprays then ?

 

Cheers m8... at least it matches with the chart...

 

I have just ordered an 18L 'Graphite Black' touch-up stick from my local dealer for the pricely sum of £12.80!! Unfortunately Halfords didn't have the code in their database.

The parts guy said sticks for 'normal' colours are about £7.

If this stick is as naff (wrong colour/paint too thick) as I'm led to believe then it'll be whinging it's way back to Mr Parts Guy for a refund.
