Default Need Paint Code

Hey Guys,

I'm in a bit of a bind so I thought that I would reach out to you for help. I'm looking for the paint code for the light blue colour in the Martini Stripe. I have the stripe on my white 997 GT3 and I'm looking to do just a little more to balance out the look. To complete the work I've been asked to produce the paintcode. I don't have it but thought that someone here might.

Anyone???

Yes I have the color on the car in the form of a stripe. BUT the stripe is listed in a pantone code and not a paint code. My options right now are to send a section of the stripe to the manfacturer or to find the appropriate paint code. I just figured with all of the people on this board someone just might have painted something using the proper code. So I thought I would give this a try first.

Contact Eric at BumperPlugs.com, because he will be your best bet. He does a lot of painting of Porsche parts in Porsche colors. He may be able to convert the pantone color code to a paint code or have the connections to get the color code from another source. Good luck.

Unfortunately I'm having the wheels and mirrors done and the vinyl will just not work in that regard.
