There is another 914 next to mine getting prepped for paint at Barry's shop in San Clemente. Is it anyone's in the group here?

If you have a piece of the car with the Original paint on it, you can bring it to a good auto paint shop with a digital camera and they can use the technology to match the color. Underside of the headlight cover...nice and flat, typically not prepped.
if you cannot do that, you may be able to contact Willhoit Restorations. He may be able to do a spray out for you of the original color and give you the matching formula based upon today's paints. I have used him for the 356 colors, not sure how he supports the 914 colors. |
