Here is mine. It's as red as you can get. I call it IROC RED the painter said it's VIPER RED.

See if you can find ABSOLUTE RED. I think it is a volkswagon color.

Re: Looking for DARK DEEP NONMETALLIC RED paint color!!!
I had my '67 Firebird painted '65 Corvette Rally Red, but I don't think that is dark enough for you. Unless you have seen the Beemer up close and personal, you gotta remember that photo renditions of paint colors don't always look the same as the true color would on whatever you want to use it on.

Re: Looking for DARK DEEP NONMETALLIC RED paint color!!!
Look for 1996 GMC standard red. That top truck sitting next to mine would look orange. The biggest majority of red trucks I have seen are like the Viper red or colors close to that. One of my friends thinks his truck is red and it looks brown to me. Maybe I am just color blind.
Take your color chips outside on a picnic table with the sun high in the sky and look at them. Then take them into the shade and look again. Last edited by Mudder; 09-24-2009 at 04:41 PM. |

Re: Looking for DARK DEEP NONMETALLIC RED paint color!!!
It's really impossible to discuss what color red you like and pictures won't give you the exact hue you want. As already suggested earlier, go to an automotive paint store and look through chips until you find what you like. BTW, nice picture of San Francisco 72truckman.

Re: Looking for DARK DEEP NONMETALLIC RED paint color!!!
A friend of mine is painting his 64 convertible Impala Lexus Crimson Red. It is a Toyuota/Lexus paint. It is a Very dark red but does not look maroon. Google Crimson Red Paint Code Toyota /pics and it will give you a picture of the color.
