MS Kit Color Qu's

what color are those tiny spoiler underneath the front and side skirts? I'm trying to fit a replica MS kit and I don't want the kit to be painted all silver...

Same goes for the rear bumper...

Thx.

I told my body shop to make the color "charcoal grey" and that seemed to get the color I was looking for.

No one has any idea of the Color Code and Mazda ain't giving it up either. You've just got to tell your bodyshop to give you something you think is close.

The code may not be the same even if you got it from Mazda. This code is different for every paint (ie House of Kolor). Just ask to look at there book and then you could pick the color you think best matches it or if you could bring a pic and let them choose.

mine is being painted as i typed this... hopefully it turns out close enough to the real deal...

i saw my shop's photo album and turns out they've done a silver rx8 with ms kit just like the real ms rx8 so i think they know what they're doing...

will post pictures as soon as i get the kit fitted...

Someone posted the code as "A39-Medium purple graphite grey pearl metallic."

Not sure if it's legit or not.

That is a jacked-up name for a color.
