hello all, this is aimed more towards an aaron i have not met, however i have after a large mental debate, decided on the colour i loved on the recently purchased c10 at the rolleston auctions, to be my colour of choice on my coupe!!! heavily wanted to keep the forest green, but damn, when you see that c10, pants get filled quick. granted my car will never quite do the same, but cant hate me for trying.

if the aformentioned aaron (or anyone in the know) could please tell me the paint code number this would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

me.

Apparently out of the KPGC10 GT-R colours, 905 is red, 920 is white and 700 is silver. Don't quote me :)

That silver is old as hell, faded and partly re-sprayed! It would look nothing like the C10 when fresh on 1200. Codes will get you no-where, just go and look at some colour charts.
Maybe even a Car-yard. Then codes will apply and the paint you see will be a more realistic representation on what you will end up with.

Get some paint oooonnnnnnnnnnnn :drool:

Use 2010 GTR gun-metal grey, that would look awsome
