Thread: Paint code problems continue...

i feel ya pain! my 2004 90 has the same problem. its painted in a colour that only ford in south affrica use PD7-347.. i had to get the paint colour matched to a sill panell i had, this is hard to do as paint changes colour when it dries.
you may have to get some samples made up and spray a test piece and see which one dries closest to your white. also make sure that the under coat colour is the same on your test piece as this will affect the end result.

It may help if you could provide a sample of the paint you want to the paint shop (maybe you can take along you bonnet, or the driver side door). Most have a facility where they can scan and analyze the colour. The computer will then compose your blend, matched exactly to your specimen.
And then, have a look at this website:

Have a look if you can find what you are looking for.

Sorry you're still having problems.

If you get stuck, have a look here for LR repairers who go by the LR codes all the time:

Thanks scouse, i think i will have to find someone with some experience in painting landrovers like you suggested. would just be much easier if they put the colour code on the VIN plate....
