Matching Vinyl Wrap Colour?


Recommended Posts

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.

Not sure how much this helps, but I believe this the blue used on the wheels.

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 :)

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. :)
