pics of anthracite bumpers please

[Gordon Livsey]

as title, ive decided to paint my gsi bumpers on my nova anthracite/dark metalic grey.

the only thing im worried about is not getting the right shade, i.e i dont want them too light and i dont want them too dark that they almost look black.

if anyone could post up any pictures of there bumpers with the colour shade that would be a great help.

Gordy, still think you should leave them blue.

[Gordon Livsey]

i wuld mate but the bumpers are a different shade from the car and i cant seem to find the exact colour match, i thought feck it paint them dark grey, that will solve any problems lmao

[Benn]

O. Paint them red.

Can your body shop not find the colour on a colour chip?

[Gordon Livsey]

ive been told its a general motors colour called quasar blue, tried looking at paint chips for G.M cars but bugger all luck. even checked other manfacturers paint colours

i want to have the car ready for this years P.V but with the bumpers that are on it miles out of colour it really pisses me off, the paint on them aint even that good a finnish

[Benn]

Oh right bit odd, Can they not " tint " the paint till its right?
We've done it loads at station, when the colour looks off..

[Grim Reaper]

benn just doesnt want to be copied lmao

[Gordon Livsey]

lmaolmao
not at all, im just going for the easy option due to the paint shade and shoddy job thats on my existing bumpers, plus the kingdom bigmouth bumper thats on it is too low and scrapes everything, decided to keep it plain, simple and original looking now

all my trim on the mk3 astra is done anthracite, i used a rover colour but its quite a bright anthracite colour
