Chipped the paint on my 86 - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Ravine, get me the touch up paint according to your paint code (its usually labelled on the firewall or on the rear of the engine) and I'll swing past and touch it up for you.

Ive had mine opticoated and it copped a small rock chip on the bonnet the other day.

Shit go.

C7P is the paint code for Mt Fuji Red.
Anyone in Bris, I can organise touch up paint for sub $20

Hey Frank,

Thanks mate! I think I might go and buy a tin of it and just get it done myself to save you the trouble. Small job anyway. It's down to the primer. How long can that be out in the open for before it starts degrading noticeably?

As long you have primer on there it won't rust, but to be safe get it touched ASAP

But unfortunately not tough enough to stop rock chips on the front bumper.

the only thing that would stop stuff like this is clear vinyl film over the front...

LeftFootBrake · 08-09-2012, 03:42 AM

Yup. I was under no illusions, but want to reinforce the message so others aren't, either. There's only so much I want to invest in protecting a plastic bumper that will probably get rashed and bashed regardless.

Oh... and I'm sorry to hear the news, Ravine. Sucks, but maybe just consider it added personality that helps make it yours?

Colour code info is in various places. But this old blog article is one.

I saw an orange subbie today.. think the imprezza xv or whatever it is in same orange as the 86..

Sutty · 08-09-2012, 04:09 AM

Ocuh that's gotta hurt, hope you can get it touched up.
