COLOUR HELP
Hi guys. My van had a complete respray a couple of owners before me and I have no idea what it is. What's the best way if any to figure this out? I don't have details for the owner who had it sprayed.
Any help really appreciated!

Re: COLOUR HELP
Take it to a paint supplier or body shop.They will have colour cards or they can put a scanner on it to get you a match.

Re: COLOUR HELP
Nice one thank you! Is that just any old place or does it have to be somewhere vw specific or something?

Re: COLOUR HELP
B&q do colour matching
You need a paint shop with a spectrum analyser or whatever it's called, you could post a picture up here it might be a vw colour someone recognises and a touch up pen on that code would say for sure.

Re: COLOUR HELP
That looks a nice colour for sure. Hopefully someone with a vw colour chart to hand will recognise it. Looks like a gun metal grey/silver. Not usually a fan of silvers but I really like that one.

Re: COLOUR HELP
Thank you! Yeh it's really nice. Just wish I knew what it was! On my v5 it just says bronze. Fingers crossed someone knows!

Re: COLOUR HELP
Look in the fuse box for a label. It should have a 4 digit code usually starts with 'L'

Re: COLOUR HELP
As scoobysrt has said you may need a paintshop to match it for you
