Title: Headlamp finisher paint name/code?
Post by: bigfatsi on August 16, 2008, 07:57:53

Howdy,

I'm rebuilding my 90 and am now at the stage of preparing the 'pretty' bits - paint, trim & finishing. The truck is geting resprayed Zermatt Silver and I want the matching coloured headlamp finishers like on here:

My problem is that I don't know what colour they are so I can get the paint. Duckworth parts recently had some on eBay but I forgot to write down the paint name! Can't find it anywhere. Can anyone help?

Cheers!

Simon.

Hmmm, it appears that it is 'Brunel Silver' but I can't find a paint code. D'oh.

Not sure there is a published paint code for Brunel. It's sometimes referred to as Brunel Grey and Brunel Chrome. It should be easy to get it made up though as it's standard trim paint on L322 Range Rovers and XS model Defenders.

Bonatti Grey is also a good contrasting colour to Zermatt silver and would make it individual.

Cheers
