stanski Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Oh bugga ! I will have a look for you soon as I can mate. Odd thing when the supplying stealer sent me a touch up pot for mine it said twilight blue on the tin? But its the right colour match? Dont have the info to hand but maybe worth asking Stealer about that colour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanski Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 BW5 suggest they make up a small pot and spray it on a card, let it dry - dont forget the topcoat is likley tinted which is why it looks black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanski Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 PS - have you looked at the code in your Warranty book (sorry if already have?) It should be on the first page next to Chassis number etc etc - not beyond the realms of possibility that they wrote the wrong one down!

rich5259 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Glad you got the paint code. Did you call Nissan Customer Service to ask why your bought from new car has the wrong paint code in their database? BTW what does it say on your V5?
