hey guys looking for some touch up paint for my cab4 code is ME / M30 BOXSTER RED anyone know were i could bye some touch up part for the plastic parts in the cabin
If you have some areas that need work, your best bet is to find the local leather repair guy that all the highline dealers use, make an appointment, and see if they can touch it up. They will color match, and in most cases with top notch guys, they can spray back the soft touch to match.
As an alternative, some of the OEM plastic parts are not particularly expensive. I have the same interior color code. Most likely they backorder them to Germany as Boxster red is becoming rare.
If you have a parts shop near you that sells SEM paint, they will do a color match for you and make you a custom can of paint. They just need a piece of trim (e.g., ashtray) to get the color. According to the SEM website there are a number of shops near Brooklyn that carry SEM paint. You just need to find one that does the custom color matching. Call around and ask! Best of luck!
I had a Boxster Red color match done at a Kelly-Moore paint store with an acrylic paint. It came out really good for small scratches, not so well on bigger areas.
I buggered up a vent this year so ordered a new one from the dealer. Unfortunately the shade of Boxster Red was a poor match to the rest of my 2001 interior.... very disappointed.
I went to Home Depot. I brought in my ashtray and had them match the paint (Savannah). I used a combined primer and topcoat paint in interior flat enamel. I applied it with a foam brush. After it dried, I "sanded" the fresh paint with a dry terrycloth towel. It came out great.
