Post some examples of those codes.

Ever thought about Techno Violet? Looks awesome on e36 M3's imo.

I'm on a cellphone, so pasting links is a bit hard, but LP2 is the midnight purple found on R33 skylines. I'm avoiding flip colours, as the job itself will be over £2K.

@RedRyder
Techno purple looks a little too bright for my taste. I love the really dark but vibrant purples.

Example of Midnight Purple LP2 on a Skyline R33

Ewww - didn't realize there was THAT much rust - and the Honda dealer told me it was just cosmetic.

They're going to underseal before they do any prep work... so a colour change is probably unaffordable at this rate. Really makes me think why these cars weren't undersealed when they were imported to the UK...

Looks a little like IronHide in Transformers DOTM.

So, keeping it the stock colour then, and going with a full respray?

Holy crap, even the RSB is terribly rusted...

Well, I've already started spending money on this. So meh, I'll pay whatever it takes to get it back to good health.

I've already started to get comments from people thinking I'm pretty insane to be spending this amount of money on this car. But tbh, there aren't many decent looking coupe cars out there, especially in this country. Yeah, I'm gonna go with the stock colour.

If the car holds a sentimental value and you are willing to maintain it, then, by all means.

Pretty much as long as you are able to get your mney's worth out of it.

It's a shame the underbody is so rusted though.

Thanks to those rainy English days, I guess.

They just finished sandblasting and undersealing.
