Hey guys, I was getting the grille for my coupe, but when I talked about getting it painted, my shop asked for a Color Code. Forgive me if this sounds stupid... but where do I find this color code?? I drive a Lakeshore Slate G coupe. Plzz help me if anyone knows.. or if everyone knows but me... :P

 

B30. Its someplace on your car I believe. I just did a quick search to find this one. I think by the battery someplace it says? i cant confirm.

what kinda grille?

 

haha awesome, I was looking all around the car and just found it too I was planning to go Gialla grille, but I ordered that sucker around mid June and they still aren't able to get it to me. I decided to just cancel the order and go with the SP grille. It's basically the exact same thing but different companies. Great price too at $180 IMO, 240$ painted (why i needed the color code). Check it out, www.silviaparts.com Thanks again man!

 

yeah, i just picked one up last week and got it painted and just installed it today. i did drill the holes before painting since it was not drilled (only dimples as guides). even the dimples didn't line up perfectly. looks good though, i'm kinda scared since the clear coat on the grille makes it brighter than the rest of the car. they just told me to wait till it fully cures and if it still doens't match after a month, bring it back.

 

jojo, you installed the SP grille? Can you post pics?? Also, you mentioned that the holes weren't aligned.. is it bad? or can u work with it.

 

well, there were what looked like filled in holes on the grille when i got them. like it was part of some mold. but when i tested it to drill them, they weren't aligned properly so i had to guess as to where to drill. i was off on the first one but the push clips cover that up fine. i'll get pics tommorrow when i can.

 

Hey JoJo, Silvia Parts couldn't color the grille lakeshore slate. I was wondering where you got your grille painted and how it came out. Thanks!

 

I just had mine painted at some local paint shop. it came out alright but it is a little lighter than my Diamond Graphite. they said that it should cure some since their clearcoat takes some time. if not, i'll just bring it back.
