Mars Red No 2, but you will need to account for the paint fading.

Dubboys right, neither of them will match.

Do a search loads of previous discussions on this.

Mine does. Lucky i guess.

Forget halfrauds, go to an automotive paint supplier and get them to match it to your car….then put it in a can…About £12 for the pleasure, and once you have the formula, they can make it for you again and again…

But remember, although you may not notice it, your car may have had a few paintjobs in its long life, wher fading and blending has been carried out…so make sure you ask the paint shop to match the paint according to the area you are painting/ blending…

Red is THE hardest colour to match, and can only be done effectively by using a base colour to blend and a clear lacquer to finish…

But for now I would go and try the 1st method and see how you get on…
