Default mica red primer colour and spaying?

Hi, thinking of getting my sideskirts and rear bumper bottom bits colour coded mica red and was wondering if anyone could tell me what colour the base coat primer is? I assume the paint comes with the gold bits mixed in. I have access to spraying equipment to do it myself, or i may take them to a sprayer and get it done profesionally.

You should take it to a professional, its not just a quick spray on job, a pro will take 2-3 days to do the job, 1 day for primer, 1 day for paint and 1 day for laqueur.

Cheers for the response, if i do take it to a spraying place i want to make sure that they do it right, ie that they spray it using the right primer as its not a common colour.

The primer that you need to use is plastic primer which is usually grey this needs to be applied first onto the keyed up bare plastic then once dry spray ur base coat red then apply the laquer coat
