spicymayo Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I have a 2016 Matte Silver FJ, and I want to wrap my forks the same colour as the wheels so it looks like the Race Blue MT09 Tracer. These are the 3M 1080 Colors (PDF) http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/media/752048O/3m-wrap-film-series-1080-horizontal-color-chart.pdf?fn=GRPH-15-1317_Chart_P3-3_LR_Clean Has anyone matched the colour, it's hard to match a screen to a wheel. I'm thinking Blue Raspberry but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevesweetz Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Not sure how much this helps, but I believe this the blue used on the wheels. http://www.colorrite.com/product/yamaha-0564-deep-purplish-blue-metallic-c-dpbmc-1905.cfm You can at least do a screen-to-screen comparison with that (real life, who knows). Blue raspberry looks a little too purple on my screen,Bblue Metallic G227 seems the closest. I'll be very interested in seeing your results as I plan on getting a 2016 silver/blue too and am not keen on the gold forks either. Yamaha themselves couldn't even get the paint to match when you see it in real life lighting, so even if it's off by a little, it will still probably be better than what the UK got stock https://touron2wheels.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/showroom-yamaha-mt-09-tracer-abs-race-blu.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicymayo Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 The wheels do have a purple look to them, Mine are not as bright blue as the wheels look in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr1ss0m Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Funny, I own a Race Blu version and am looking to get vinyl wrap in matching gold to match yours! ☺ Maybe we should trade...........but I guess you don't live in The Netherlands.

spicymayo Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Haha I would totally trade, but I'm in Canada. I have to admit, the gold is starting to grow on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
