[QUOTE="Kapy, post: 13585495, member: 144046"] Very funny you are wondering the same as I have been researching as well for a long time. I am wanting to put a different hood on the car but keep the vinyl striping. Been working with a local graphics guy who cannot even come close to matching the color. So I did exactly what you did and have got nowhere. However the closest I have found is 3M actually has a color listed as medium red and it appears to match. Without having the actual color swatch it is impossible to know for a fact. So my graphics guy called his 3M rep to get a color sample of the Medium Red. Here is where it gets disappointing. The Medium Red that 3M has is a European spec only color and will not distribute to the U.S. How crazy is that? But it kind of makes sense because of the car, Shelby name, SVT etc., they probably want to keep the chance of copying colors and stripes to the minimum. Or more than likely, the 3M tape overseas was bidded at a cheaper price. That's probably what happened. None the less I am in the same boat as you. Very frustrating. [/QUOTE]
