Hi, I am a new member and Iv been building a mk1 escort rs2000 (replica, originally a 1300E) for about 6 years. Im currently having my front 2.8i capri struts restored along with some other suspension parts. Iv had trouble trying to find out the correct paint code for my blue bilsteins. Iv tried ringing bilstein in Germany and over here in the uk but they couldnt help me. They told me to contact gartrac who told me that they just use blue hamerite spray cans. I dont want to use this as Im using 2pac paint because it dries nice and hard as well as being more shiney. Iv got the paint code for a vauxhall colour (Aruba blue) which Im told is pretty close and Im going to buy this 2morrow but I thought Id ask on here first just incase someone knows the correct code. I know its a long shot but I'll check on here 2morrow before I go to the paint shop just incase.

Any help greatly appreciated

Ill be posting a project thread soon so that any1 whos interested can view my progress so far. Im hoping to get the car on the road for the summer but It'll probably only be in primer on the outside. The underside and all internals are already painted to a very high standard.
