Paint colour reference

[seb]

I've got a dark metallic green (BRG?) V8S, would anyone have any idea what the paint code/colour is, or how I might find out? I'd like to get some touch up paint.

There's something around on one of the forums... I've got it on my office PC... so drop me a line (via my profile) and I'll dig it out in the morning!

The paint code should be on the ID plate under the bonnet- passengers side.
For instance on mine its P422-1782B, the P422 is the paint type and 1782B is the ICI paint code. Halfords wont be able to help as they don't list TVR's. I did post a thread on who to contact a month or so ago, I believe the contact was PPG(Autocolour) Tel.[phone] or search on the thread "Paint colour"
search on "Matching colour paint " 23rd. Sept Thread

I wanted a paint code for my red S3. I rang ICI - no joy I then rang TVR and got through to the paint shop foreman who gave me the colour and code off the top of his head although when I did have my mirror sprayed it was a slightly different colour because the rest of the paintwork is 10 years old
All the best,
