sounds about right but dont think the colours are abbreviated as argents...? I know my winter white f6 has "oxidised steel (os) on its panda eyes.

even if the front l/h and r/h sides were painted at different times, it would take a fairly terrible paint match to show up the differences, let alone the front and back.

I reckon he has just f###ed up and done a very light coat as the 1st time he sprayed it the paint came about blotchy so he came back and sprayed again.He told me he did a dryer coat which I'm assuming means less paint/more air???

He didnt paint the front,he repaired the towbar hole and resprayed the rear only.

Get email from FPV regarding the Panda Eyes colour.It's called graphite and the colour reference is 6AZP.

Even the Taxi White that has been around for many years has the same paint code but different formulation depending on year.

Regarding your towbar infill respray. Only a pro spray shop is able to match colours. Otherwise forget a touch up guy doing it in your driveway

Yeah I've now realized that I shouldn't have used a mobile guy.I just wanted it fixed ASAP and because I had a broken sternum I wasn't able to drive it anywhere so mobile was only option.

Now that I can drive I'm taking it to a shop next week to get fixed properly
