hey def
Thanks alot for your help. It seems the person who sold me the car was incorrect when he said the car was Storm Titanium. The car is Grafite Grey, and I think that the paint supplier just mixed it wrong. I even brought him the front access panels to match it under the machine. The new paint is dark
battleship grey with very little metalflake. I am going to re-shoot it next weekend with paint from a different supplier and manufacter (Dupont this time, PPG the first time). If I can't get it to match this time I'll shoot the whole car, maybe a custom color? Thanks again

There are two Storm Titaniums and two Graphite Greys from Lotus:

B98 Storm Titanium
B121 Storm Titanium
B108 Graphite Grey
B122 Graphite Grey

Did you check your paint code? Driver side, in between the seat and the sill.

Any updates on the Krypton green from 06+

I had my local paint supplier look up the Phantom Black and they said that Dupont didn't have it listed???

Somebody has already mentioned this but I figure I would mention it again to emphasize and save somebody $200 (What I was told it cost to paint the rear clam.): B100 Magnetic Blue is TOO violet.

I took this with my phone to send to my buddies with a tag line similar to 'FML.'

Hello everyone, I'm new here...

I just wanted to confirm that the color chart posted earlier is correct, and the color code for 2005 Lotus racing green (metallic) is B86 (748065 Dupont code).

I tried contacting lotus directly and I didn't get a response.

If anyone can double confirm this, or assure me that the chart is in fact correct. It would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
-Nathaniel

Hey Randy
I'am a new member, first time on Lotustalk.
I have a problem that I see you have helped others with.
My 2008/09 elise is "Isotope Green" paint code B132, Primer value shade 1 in water based Dupont. Can anybody give me additional info to give to painters, the Dupont rep had no reference to this colour and was no help.

Any help appreciated. Cheers Greg.
