I've done quite a bit of reading and have taken the plunge on a set of 22's for the summer and will keep my hurricanes for winter and off road. What size tyres are you guys running on your 22's? Thanks in advance :)

Thanks for the help but Its Rover Brunel Grey Chrome Matt Code LBO for anyone who wants to know! Sorry for the wasted post! :)

Hey guys, Anyone know the colour code or name for the side vents & front grille on an L322? Got a chap with stone chip paradise who wants them repainting and can't find the info. Thanks in advance. :confused:

Beluga looks like a really nice solid black.....now need to see a java car to compare. Ive seen java on a colour chip so I know what the pearls are, I just want to see a side by side comparison of P38's with the two colours on!! :p

Hey guys, As many of you know I'm repainting the old truck and I've pretty much decided on black. However, could you guys pleeeeeeeeeeeease post some pics of java black and beluga black for comparison purposes? I already know beluga is solid and java is mica, i'm after which one looks...

as black as Darth Vader's under crackers me thinks! :D Found a pic of an absolutely gorgeous '96 down under and its really taken my breath away. Think a cloning sesh is in order.

:D I was thinking of a dark black actually, seems better than vague black?!

Advice noted. It's difficult to pull off white on any car unless there is no belt line trim, or anything to interfere with the lines. If you were to paint a P38 white, you would have to paint ALL of it white, like the new ones. No black bits, and immediately it would necessitate larger wheels to...

Hahaha!! Understood. The paint job I'm doing will be worth more than the car but I cannot stand that blue and it desperately needs to be made look worth a little more than it is right now! Just remember for future reference, cheap job = do it twice!!! You get what you pay for with bodywork...

If its a colour change job usually the cost is around £1800 including any dents but if its a same colour blow over we can do it for £1400 However as its mine, its just blood, sweat, tears and divorce!! :(

Haha, bring it down and we'll paint it for you!! Anyway a bronze flake is present in both Ferrari Nero black and Vauxhall sapphire black but I don't think either of them suit the truck. I've been through this this morning at my paint supplier. Java black has green, red, blue, silver, and...

Wow thanks for the info peeps! I have the book, just haven't read it yet!! The black vogue looks beautiful, is it java black? What's the paint code? But so does the red.....oh god why do we have choices!!!! :D

Well as usual with a P38 my aircon doesn't work anyway ;) plus in the UK our summer is three days in April so there isn't much to worry about in that regard. However I do intend to give this rangey everything it deserves so aircon will be restored eventually. I think black is my only...

Thanks for the heads up! We'll have to wait with baited breath to see what they're going to impose on us next! So do we agree on black?!!

New MOT? More rules?! Marvellous! So what have the rules stated about putting bigger wheels on these cars?

Thanks for the heads up. I guess if there are any suspension issues on 18's they're going to be amplified on anything larger. i'll have to have all my bushes checked...ooooerrrr!! :o

I love the Oxford Blue colour, problem is that I have black leather interior. I don't know if that would work or not? I've had black cars before but the amount of clearcoat I'll be putting on this truck it'll take being flatted back several times to keep the condition of the paint good. Plus...

I just like the way the car and the glass is black, but the bumpers haven't been violated with body colour paintwork. It does mean I'll have to find another front and rear bumper that hasn't been pained though :( I think the chrome wheels work, but I only want to go to 20", heard some pretty...

Me too!! That looks a bit yummy. It's pretty much how I want it with the chrome trim inserts on the sides and front bumper. This is what got me excited....

Thats why I was thinking of the Anthracite. I had it on an MGF and it just looks black normally, but when the sun hits it...WOW! Never seen a black with so much pearl and metallic in it. Then theres Ferrari Daytona Black.....:confused: So many blacks, not enough time! Most 12 year old...
