• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Official Paint Codes

I have gone to a couple of Paint Shops and they tried to do a cross reference to any other mfg of paint using the BSAF Orbital Blue 862277 and found no match.

This number must be an exclusive one for BRP/

Now my question is: What happens if I need a panel or part of the spyder painted to factory specs when no cross reference is possible?
1. Order New Panels from BRP and WAIT?
2. Change the color completely?
3. Not worry about the match?
4. Just leave it as is?
5. Find a Paint Dealer to use the Paint matching device hopeing for an absolute match?

I just ran into this problem myself when having my fairing painted. The body shop couldn't find the paint based on the code I gave them. They had to do a color match using "The Prophet" from a panel I loaned them. In my case it's not a big deal since the fairing won't be anywhere near other panels on the Spyder painted blue, but if they were then it would be an issue.
 
Many paint shops can't convert bike codes into car codes to make the mix. I recently had a panel painted on my red Spyder using a GM color that I eyeballed and the match is undetectable..... and I am picky. It is a Sherwin Williams paint, Torch Red code 70.

Hi
Would you have the color code for a 2020 Spyder Rt Limited ( Dark ) wheels? Have a few curb rashes on my rims I would like to touch up.

Thanks
