yeah its a lupo tafetta (sp) green, yeah i have the 2 mags here that it was in, my mate owns a good sprayin business but the paint job on the motor is flawless. my mate says that there is a load of layers of green done on it and he would need a rough idea how many layers are on it :S all over my head,

worth a shot to see if i can find out about it.
cheers

It was Ged himself who sprayed it I believe along with Jason. It'll be a hard job to get it to match up I reckon. Someone on here might be able to put you in touch with him, he has a login on Club Polo but dosent go on much I dont think. Might be worth chucking him a pm on there though.

Correct it is Lupo Taffeta Green.

Ged Mconville sprayed it himself- I'm still in contact with him, what specifically did you need to know?

Cheers

if you want it colour matching mate i can do it in 2 mins ;)

i would need a panel ie petrol flap or if your local (derbyshire) bring your car to my bodyshop

i can supply just the paint or do the whole job dont mind either way

colour match will be 95%-100% perfect

let me know pal

yoof:
just an idea of how many layers of green is done on it,may be only one layer but few people have said the colour looks very deep so there must be a few layers on it, its way over my head lol. some paint job on it:D have a jar of paint here but wouldnt have a clue as to how much it would spray.

You could use a Paint Depth Gauge that will give you an idea of how many layers to paint maybe?
