Title: GS 500 E Paint Code Red 1999
Post by: DefoNotSpike on June 12, 2022, 03:27:41 PM
Hiya, new member here. The red on my GS500E tank has faded (UK model 1999) , looking to respray. Can't find any info on the red used for that year. Has someone got the paint code because I can't find it online anywhere. Thanks in advance  :)

That is peculiar, according to the wiki, red wasn't offered as late as 1999.

Have a look at this link here. I have it bookmarked but for some reason it's not letting me see the page here at work:
