Carmen Red Item For Colour Match ?

[ZACK]

Hi Guys,

Basically I need to send something off to the powder coaters to be colour-matched Carmen Red. I'm unable to give them my car, the wheels or the mirror covers as I'll be using the car. Tried searching for accessories to buy but the Norev Models I've bought don't look anything like the Carmen Red on my car. The coaters have the Citroen code ( KED ) and they say they can work off that but I want to give them an actual item for full peace of mind and to guarantee a match.

Can anyone think of anything I can use that I might be missing ? Or Does anyone have anything spare they're looking to lend or sell ?

Also been to the dealers, their paint 'sample' they gave me was awful and looked nothing like Carmen Red !

Any help is appreciated as always,

Cheers

Why note pop into your local dealer and ask if you can borrow the colour card from their colour book are even the colour block from the wall?

I'd edited the post just before you typed that, sorry Bigz !

What about the trim disc in your key?

I wondered that too but I can't recall if the Carmen Red roof was the original colour on Zack's car....

Might be too small to scan (if that's what the painters are planing!).
