Hey Guys,
I have a new motor sitting at paint and I was planning to do wilwood brakes in "competition orange" and I wanted to paint the motor block to match.
The dilemma arises as I called the tech guys @ wilwood wont give me the paint code because its "proprietary" and after some follow-up calls they just said its a color they powder coat and simply can't provide any info to match it.
When I asked for additional pics on customer cars etc they said all the can offer is whats on youtube/website.
Not the best customer service experience but it is what it is i guess.
The only place I could find a paint reference is on a older post on this forum.
Problem is the youtube color, wilwood website color, and the post color all look slightly different!
Has anyone used this color with wilwood before and has a paintcode to match (or something close).
Would really love to paint the motor to match but Im about to say to hell with it and just paint it black :banghead::banghead::banghead:
