Definitely the right info bit on the trim plate? Dunno if they used same codes for other things in different positions if that makes sense.

As your is 19L but a MK1 colour this is why it won't tie up to Jacks guide, his is (1991-2001).

Just take it into halfords and they will mix the paint, if it looks Silk Violet still then don't buy it lol

[Andy]

Would be a little difficult taking it to Halfords with nay engine lol

I mean the colour code number off your car lol they mixed mine okay to say it was also from 1987 :d

[Nova_Sean]

Deffianlty isnt atlantis blue! That colour is one of the worst ive ever seen!

[Andy]

Just bought a tin o' regatta and it looks like its the one......shall see how it dries lol

[Andy]

Lose,its wrong!! lol,but its done the inside of the arches so no loss really.
According to Halfords 19L Blue is Azure Blue,according to their computer it was only on 1980-1981 Vauxhalls.
They are so fail they cant mix one up tonight as its taking 3 of them to fit a stereo the fukktards.
So im going to my local bodyshop tomorrow.

According to halfords the code for flame red is a burgundy colour, called flame red, so I'd get a test size made up at the body shop before you commit lol

[Trendall]

personaly hafords are ****. they try'd saying multifit wheels would fit on a 3 stud 106. also if you have 17" wheels you could get tyres so they are the same as 15" i over heard one guy say to this women. lol they pissed me off oneday so i took in the bassest cd i had and blew up there sound wall with it by changing all the settings and cranking it up to the max. when they asked what i was doing i said well why should i buy speakers that will blow up when i want to listen to my music like that :)

[Rysee]

Ouch!

This is Vaux Regatta blue

[MK999]

best thing I have seen in halfords is "I'm looking for oil *blank look* for a vauxhall *blank look* monaro *blank look* VXR *lightbulb*" ahhh yes, for high revving engines we have....

Ah yes of course, that 5x00 RPM limited screamer lol

[Andy]

LMFAO@ Vauxhall,they didnt even know!!
Took it to my local bodyshop supplies and it is indeed REGATTA BLUE!! As i 1st thought. At least my inner arches will match now :D

[Rysee]

Good news then mate, it really does look different on my mates plastics

[Andy]

I dont think it does tbh,when i thought about it i was matching the colour to the car covered in dust and in a badly lit garage lol

[Jack]

also if you have 17" wheels you could get tyres so they are the same as 15" i over heard one guy say to this women.
My 18" wheels are smaller than my OEM 16" wheels ;)

[Andy]

Jack your list needs updating with this colour mate,so others dont have the same rigmarole as i had lol
