R26 Interior Colour Codes

  1. Is there a list anywhere on interior trim colour codes?

    I need to re spray the centre console armrest trim covers. All the top coating is peeling off leaving black underneath.

  3. Did mine myself in the anthracite from the mirrors etc, looks reasonable I think. 8A1CDB24-8B6F-4101-8B89-D59CCBD7AF2A.jpeg

  4. I’ll check the paint code when I get home if you want.
     
  5. Cheers, it's the arm rest not the dash part I need to do. Or have you done it all?

    you mean the plastic part the the handbrake slides up and down dont you?
     
  7. No the actual arm rest console.
     
  8. No just did the centre console, handbrake plastics, grab handles and door release handles.
     
  9. For a couple of years I've been trying to find a matte gray plastic paint code for meg . I tested 500 grams of various shades of gray color.
    and I'm still nowhere near the original. That color from the picture is a total failure. It pulls on the green and the texture is desperate (sorry).
    I really hope someone sets up something really good. I got tired of looking and testing.
    Tomorrow I will hang my masterpiece for which I lost enough time to buy a new one. Of course I'm not happy. It can certainly be better
     
  10. I may just got for a non-reflective matt black colour. Can't really go wrong I think. Probably be an ideato do the centre console as well. Is it easy to remove (Where the stereo is).
     
  11. It was never supposed to match the original colour filo, it’s the same colour as r26 wheels and mirrors, not sure where you’re getting greens from mind, probably just the lighting.
     
  12. I like the thought of Carbon dipping. expensive though.

    i think carbon dipping look tacky imo, how bad is your arm rest?
     
  14. I've just bought another one :grimacing::laughing:

    Im not really feeling the spray paint option. As you can see the top trims were in bad shape after cleaning.
    The armrest itself isnt bad, but the leather needs re-trimmed.

    The one ive just bought is another complete set, but has the material arm rest instead of Leather. I'll keep all the best bits, then sell the rest. Could be a nice project for someone.
     
  15. Sorry my English is not perfect. I went a little overboard with the criticism. The colors are seen differently. That glow would kill me while driving. it's not for me
    In the middle of the picture of the ventilation opening is a different color. I need something in between with the same texture.

  16. Is that the original colour on yours? Looks darker than mine. Your LED display is also different colour.
     
  17. That’s a phase 1 dash, r26 is phase 2 and has a different display.

  18. No that's what I painted. All three parts. A thin layer of paint. The original color is a little lighter and more gray. Yes and the texture is better than mine.
