Pic first.
Identify this paint/paint code S13_02

Now I've been told its oem paint. Was told it was a "rare factory gray".

From paint scratch... i get a few gray/charcoal paints.

"Dark Gray Metallic Clearcoat"
"Charcoal Metallic Clearcoat"

I had thought it was the Charcoal... but now I'm leaning towards the Dark Gray... simply because he was specific about it being a factory gray.

Any thoughts?

This will be for a full inside/outside paint job... with oem body all around... and also painting a 180 front from Taka... chargespeed sides and origin aggressive rear for if they fit the budget in the end... ie: 2 bodys 2 bodys 2 bodys in one... or something lame like that.

OEM as in OEM 240sx color? or as in OEM available on some other car.

It looks like Nissan K2something and K5something I was looking at for my S14.
I just went to a dealer, looked at cars, picked color I liked, went inside to grab a brochure and looked up the paint code.

Oem nissan. It is supposed to be original paint on that car, minus the paint done for the bodykit.

Possibly... but i'm ready to start buying supplies and I couldn't find definite information.

I don't post without at least doing some homework first.

If it helps, its the One Ton Garage car... I'd bet most knew that though.

I have another feeler out to the shop owner, maybe he'll be able to toss me more info than just "factory gray"
