Title: how rare is my paint
Post by: MrAnderson93 on 21 October 2010, 00:12

my car is tornado red, ly3d

is this a rare mk3 colour? all the other i see are flash red lol and there aint many of them around really either haha

edit
mainly because i need a new wing and maybe door, when looking not many red parts come up and if they do its in flash red, i really want as little hassle with this and would rather not have to get things sprayed

I have seen a few for sale with tornado red But to be honest getting an exact part in a certain colour isnt going to be easy to be honst mate just take it to a small bodyshop It wont cost you that much if hes a decent guy

The problem your going to have looking for red body panels is that it fades, not only a lot, but at different rates depending on how the car has been treated.

Even if you do come across a tornado red part, the chances are it won't be an exact colour match anyway.
