Koguchi's always got the most amazing looking 180sx! Sorry I can't be of much help but the color looks close to platinum silver. Just sure exactly which one.

why do you need the exact colour code?

its not like there arent a million other shades of silver that would look equally good.

The thing is I dont want a silver that looks plasticy and very run-of-the mill like you see all over the roads, I like the way that paint tones down to the darker areas where the light isnt hitting and in turn remains looking quite metal-like (not just a metallic finish I dont think).

Another reason it would be good to find out the code being that I didnt want a colour too custom otherwise different places may find it hard to match when getting bumpers re-painted etc...

Does anyone know if koguchi-power maybe have a blog somewhere I could ask on?Thanks

Almost looks like quicksilver fx metallic (toyota supra color.) I was going to use quicksilver fx to paint my last car but never got around to it. I will see if I can find the paint code.

Edit paint code for the supra color is 1B9.
