I need to get my hands on some paint to paint the grill on my silver TE.
I have been told to look under the hood to find the actual colour but all i can see is
"SQ ... DUL48216"
What silver would that be classified as?
Help please???
Sorry if this sounds stupid but nobody at super cheap is any help... all useless 14yos :gtfo:

*waits for TUFFTR to see knightsy baggin supercheap*


have you thought of ringing up mitsubishi to get the colour?

Better off going to Autobarn - they actually mix colours and therefore have decent lists of codes. Supercheap really just sell spray cans and I've never seen spray cans with Magna era colurs - they're all stuck with old Sigma codes. Or ... ring a spare parts dept at a dealer and order a 'touch up' bottle for a few bux. If its a TE and its Silver - its probably 'Mercury Silver' but do get a dealer to confirm that.

LMAO LMAO LMAO hahaha idiot!
well knightsy im 16 lol so close enough, but if its just for the grill i dont think theres a code for that, its only body colors, unless your silver car which is the same color as your grill, i dont think your gonna have any luck.

or, conversly, just ring up autobarn or mitsubishi and do it that way, but @ super cheap there all body codes.

SQ = Silver leaf is your colour and the word/number after the SQ means the factory paint used was dulux and thats there code number.

You can get touch up bottles from mitsu?

yes, they come in little nail polish bottles, so you can do you're toes afterwards

painted the grill and looks sweet as.
just that bit better than the plain black.
very easy to do aswell :D

i was thinking the same thing lol

cos im too lazy to ring mitsu, how much do these little touch up bottles go for?

was only like $8.50 per can.
i did plastic primer first cos apparently it will peel after a while without it...
so $17.00 all up
