cars are repainted and toyed with and what not mate so hence some will be not excactly the same bet ya if u put 10 yellow bt1s together be very suprised if the yellows match up but from factory a VIC vk/vl bt1 colours will match up i could assure that

omg XCPTOR get over it, you have been proven wrong. The old LH Torana G Pak was Absynth yellow too. You cant have two colours with the same code. Thats rediculous and You should probably get off the gear for a while. ---------- Post added 16-11-10 at 07:08 ---------- look at the PM this idiot sent me LOL Quote: Originally Posted by XCPTOR you ****stick! you dont know **** you inbred wanker, i was only proving a point you computer nerd also what the **** would you know being in the drug ****ed capital of Australia i see yellow VL / VK BT1's in VIC all the time, obviously there isnt anyone one here to prove my point at the moment. iv'e gotten over this thread and wasnt gonna go on because it wasnt getting anywhere..

Vl exec and nick, codes are correct, just checked them on the standox paint mix program at work. Just thought I'd add that :-p Also guys, depending on the paint system, age of the paint on the car, oxidisation, uv exposure etc, 99% of the time colors will be different. Personal experience.
