    Hello,

    I own a 96' red viffer, and I have a problem with its paint.

    After a little crash, left body was damaged. So I need the complete colour reference in order to paint it. I read under the seat the code R158P, but when I went to the paint-shop, they told me that there was no paint with that reference, and I needed the complete code so that they could make that paint for me.

    Does anybody know which code do I need?

    Thank you!

    Try another paint shop. One that isn't stupid.

    You have the correct paint code. It is a 3-part base/pearl/clear paint, so don't expect it to be cheap.

    Thank you VT. I will try another shop, one that may be a little bit more professional.

    ^ at $400 a quart (because you have to buy the basecoat AND the topcoat for this color)? Color-Rite is one of the true ripoffs of the internet.

    Also unlikely that Color-Rite can ship to Europe (where the OP is from).
