CUSCO paint code

[dotty]

I am getting a set of CUSCO anti roll bars (front and rear) soon but they need repainting.

Does anyone know what the paint code is? I have heard Vauxhall Arden blue is close but wondering if anyone knows for sure.

Also will the DC5 OEM ARB's fit an EP3? I have a feeling the rear one will but the front wont?

Cheers

Arden blue is metallic, don't think they are?
Cusco probably don't release the colours, similar to wheels etc. Take it to your local automotive paint shop and they'll be able to match it for you easily

As above, a close match will be best, Si (CS&EVO) Has a little paint pot of the stuff (jammy git!)

He will know the exact name but it's very very difficult to get hold of.

The trouble I have with a paint match is that the roll bars have been painted white. So I want them back to blue!

I have a cusco strut brace, I guess I could use that.

Doesn't look far off a different opel colour to be honest, 20c

Maybe just a touch darker, hard to tell on a computer screen!

No the DC5 rollbars wont fit civic .... too long afraid

 

[PORTHOS]

To be honest, it's not to dissimilar to Arctic blue... perhaps slightly lighter/more vivid.

I have a rear dc5 anti roll bar on my civic that came off my dc5,

I believe the rear fits but not the front.

The front won't I've tried myself
