Yeah blue. Wanna re-spay some and get a prefect match with the original colour.

I had to change the lowers on my 98 SID so I could run disks but I really want to have the original colour again.

Has anybody ever managed to find an exact match to the original blue?

Is anyone wiling to take their 98 fork into their local Halfords (or similar) and see if they can find a close match?

Really need some help with this please guys.

I have some 98 SID lowers in my spares box. I will get out the colour chips on Wednesday and find the nearest match for you.

Thank You!!!!!

Having access to colour chips, any chance you do spraying for a living?

I don't paint for a living as such but I do have paint facilities in my workshop. Problem is I have a very very long waiting list too so can't take on any paintwork for the forseable future.

OK cool. Will be a great help if you can help me find the right colour

Any advice on re-spraying magnesium? I'm not sure yet if I'll do it myself with cans or find a local company who can do them in powder.

Si,

Any luck finding the colour mate?
