Has anyone painted their LWBS passthroughs plastic pieces in Arctic Grey to match the exterior? If so, any photos to share?

Default GT3 Arctic Grey Diecast Model 1/18
I have recently bought a GT3 in arctic grey. I am looking for a diecast 1/18 model replica. However, the diecast manufactuerers don't make a GT3 in arctic grey. Does anyone know a company or someone that may be able to repaint a a model to arctic grey?

Many thanks.

Has anybody compared Arctic Grey to Nardo Grey? Arctic looks a bit darker and more blue to my eye but curious if anyone had a side by side photo?

I have searched and haven't found any helpful photos, so hoping someone here can chime in. Thanks in advance!


Thought I would share the actual 'real life' results of my 2024 Touring in Arctic with EM Cohiba leather. Also added 50th Anniversary Houndstooth seat inserts. Loving how it all came together! The blue tones in the Arctic and the orangey tones of the Cohiba play off each other very nicely.

Thanks! Seat inserts are aftermarket (no CXX was available for me). I couldn't find any vendors in the US that had (or could get) the 50th Anniversary houndstooth fabric, but it's available in Europe. I worked with Garry at Classic FX in the UK (https://www.classicfx.net). He was great to work with and the quality of workmanship is top notch.

Congrats. Looking for a GT3 Touring right now with similar spec, except I want the sofas. Wonder if those houndstooth inserts could also be done on the 18 way seats. Very nice.

My understanding is that they can be done... but not inexpensively! and not reversible since the OEM seat cover has to be altered with the new insert. The inserts in the buckets are easy to revert back to stock And you would have to source the material from Europe and have a local upholstery shop perform the work.

Good luck with your search... The Touring is an amazing machine!
