Whats the name of the silver they did the S3's in?

[Andrew@A.L.D]

I'm going to get the S3 painted at some point and someone said to me that i should get it painted in VW Reflex silver?

 

[Speedy Steve]

its one of the thousand of shades of silver Audi made think they just had a huge barrel of the stuff adding others as they went and changing the name

 

[Andrew@A.L.D]

******

Never mind i think its going to be painted in Reflex silver

 

[Speedy Steve]

Im in the same boat Andy after respraying mine but dont want to go to different

 

[Andrew@A.L.D]

Reflex silver is a nice silver but i don't know how much of a difference it is to the silver thats on my car as that means i would have to get the insides of the doors, boot and bonnet done

Avus Silver?

 

[Nilz]

No its not Avus Silver, unless its the one with a hint of blue in it??

If its the Silver I am thinking of, it will be Lake Silver Metallic - LY7W

 

[Andrew@A.L.D]

My S3 is a 1999 V, log book just say's silver?

Is there anywhere on the car that tell you?

 

[Nilz]

If you have a look in the boot, there will be a sticker in there, or on the front inside cover on your handbook there will be a white sticker that will have the code on it.

Im pretty sure it will be the one I have stated, but double check, or otherwise ring Audi with your VIN number, they should be able to advise...

 

[wibble111]

Mine is listed as 'aluminium silver', the fastest colour by far....

 

[Andrew@A.L.D]

Thats what i get when the reg is put into euro car parts web site

 

[TDIQ]

Spray it Suzuka Grey!

There should be a sticker when you look in the spare wheel bit with the paint code.

Aaron, Just a suggestion but is be inclined to blot out the Vin number of your car when posting a pic of the vehicle details sticker on the web.

OAP Silver.

Yep, that's the same as mine. For pics see the GTI INternational 2010 thread ("S3PRN").

JoJo - it definitely ain't "OAP Silver". I think you're confused with "Geriatric Black" mate!
