Paint colour...?

[kiesh]

this could well be a very obvious one, but i have a red e30, ive been told its zinobar red, and also ben told its henna red or summat? anyone know where i can find out, i need to get a can mixed up to respray a replacement drivers side wing (when i eventually find one!!)

there should be a sticker on the passenger side shock tower top, it will tell you what the colour is.

But it still won't match. Reds are notorious for fading. You'd be better off finding a good second hand wing in the right colour.
Paint code is also on the metal VIN plate by the back of the right hand headlamps.
***/* by a square box, half way down the left side.
