Welcome to the Forum buddy!

It is a TimeAttack car so I guess that will be the best place to start.

I can tell you that the car in question is James Nichols Evo VI which was an RC Developments car.

Sadly that is all I can tell you on the car but what you can do is give Clive W or Laurence a call at Car Planet and I am sure they will fill you in. A colour scheme like that one is not forgotten in a hurry.

Keep us posted on how you get on.

You will get all you need on the colour from Car Planet, If anyone has more to add then that will be great but hearing it from the horses mouth will mean that you are getting the correct code.

Why the desperation, Evolver???

I assume that you have a project on the go and I must admit that I am slightly intrigued!

Are you going to fill us all in???

Yeah

basically i am getting a full wide arch kit fitted as we speak,and the work has come to a conclusion ALOT quicker than we thought. So now its time to spray!

Will post pix up when i can.

I will try car planet now!

Can someone give me the direct link to there site? As all i get is this:
Main

I take it that has to be wrong!

Thanks again

A better option right here!

Sure Jake,
you could try those guys but I have a feeling that you will get further if you try these guys:D:

CPR - CARPLANET RACING.COM

Ask for Laurence and tell him that El from Auto Clinic in Birmingham said that you would be happy to help;)

Keep us posted and get the preliminary pictures up as soon as possible please.

Showing us what it looks like right now and then showing us what it looks like ready will help us appreciate it more I think, don't you???

Speak to you soon buddy.

I told you originally that the car is James Nichols' Evo VI buddy, there is a blog page on the TimeAttack website if I recall correctly. As quite a few of the teams subscribe to it, I suspect that you may get some luck if you post a message there too in the mean time.

I will have a word with some members that I suspect may be able to contact him, get hold of his contact details or perhaps pass a message onto him for you.

Some one will be over in a while I hope;)

i am sure that if you showed that pictured or mailed it to some paint specialists then they could come up with something in a minute or less!

You might well be waiting a long time for the owner to give you a heads up, what if he says he dont wonna tell ya?

Welcome to the Forum James!!!!

Thank you for popping along and helping out. It is very much appreciated as I know you are a really busy guy:D

There are some automotive paint manufacturers in the UK that are very good at mixing colours. If you have some lying around, no matter how small an amount it may be, I am sure that you will be able to get it mixed up right here.

I can forward you some details if you think it might be of help.
