« on: May 10, 2007, 07:24:37 AM »
Any one know where to get paint thats matches the color on the 600 engines? What paint is the closest color match is what I really would like to know, not where to get it so much. :thanks:

Any idea what would be a close match?
I'm gonna try Testers.

I know there's a Testors paint that's a close match for the B12's black engine. Don't know about the B6's silver tho.

Griot's Garage has a metallic silver wheel paint that comes close.  It's arasole but I make it work.
