Well they do say LY is hard to match!!!!!!
But OMG, hope it looks better in daylight than it does in the photos :rofl:
 
This may have been the car we saw at Montlhery. I think someone got the plaque number, #038 seems to ring a bell. Mossy or Blake might be able to confirm that.
Overall, it don't look a bad paint job when it was first done, although Illiad could be spotted in one or two places around the rear quater glass, as it looked like it was left in to paint and time had taken its toll on the paint edge.

Can find it in the register

Even better then! Lol, I'm at work on a mobile device, with crap tinterweb coverage. Takes far too long to open the register from where I am. Lol :salut:
 
Yes it's deffo number 38, maxi man and i followed it around Monthellery, did you not my pm James?

The car is Iliad blue underneath and has been sprayed very, very badly :(
 
Soo... back on a computer.. that rear bumper is horrific! LOL It wasnt like that in September, thats for sure..

So am I right in thinking there are now 3 UK cars, 2 Illiad and 1 Titanium now residing in France that have been painted LY? I cant see them in the UK register.. . ;)
 
it is a very hard colour to match, he should have had spray cards done to see how it was done previously its dopends on the way the flip layer was laid on to of the base coat, its a 3 stage pearl
