Hey Bros,

Anyone know what paint code is the diffuser to give contrast?

Thanks

i guess, any 'matte-black paint' will do..
not neccesary 'specific' paint code..
cos it is small portion out of the body kit..
to give out 'contrast' to ur car appearance..

p/s: some uses CF lamination, some painted it grey,
some might use "striking orange" diffuser..on a black car.
hell NICE also..

ah ok. cos i like that particular look as shown in pic. Also other pics show the same contrast. My friend is painting his kit to nighthawk black so i was thinking of using the remainder paint to do the diffuser. But im scared that it wont look like that. Any help?

cheers

Hey bros,

thanks for reply. Friend also adv matte black. Is there a color code for it? Or painter should know what matte black is? Also, do i need to put gloss over it just like the rest of the car body?

Thanks

spray it matt black la...
it looks cool
no need to put gloss...for my ride i am using only 2 colours
silver and matt black
looks sporty
if u spray the diffuser with glossy black might look a bit out...

sorry bros, when i say gloss, i mean to say clearcoat. That smooth coating they put so the paint isnt bare. Ok, i will go with matt black hopefully will give a nice contrast

In the 1st pics is a mugen rear skirt. Not much function really, just cosmetics. Yes, it can be fitted perfectly with FD1 & FD2. Contact GC Motorsport Damansara for price & fitting. Wink

Happy modding!
