Color matching Metallic Orange/Green RR : Honda CBR 600RR Sportbike Forum : 600RR.Net

**tripage** · 12-02-2012, 02:15 PM

We have had a number of members wanting us to powder coat color match the
OEM Metallic Orange (Pearl Fire Orange)
OEM metallic Green

We do need a couple orders to make this happen.
Already have a member ready for Orange Rims to be done. If this is something you are wanting to purchase we can make it happen. So if you are interested let me know what you are wanting done and when you would like to do it. The more that are wanting done Orange or Green, that color will be done first. I have a green fender and an Orange upper fairing so i can show side by side the powder coat color to the OEM paint color.

Hes not actually doing them yet he's trying to see how many people actually want it done before he gets the custom powder made your idea is close to the one I had in mind

Id be interested in the green powdercoating. I'd like to see some of the work for sure.

Looks like Orange will be first. We will see how this goes and look to green for the next one available. I will post up pictures once it is completed. Thanks. T

Depends on how many jump in on this. 6 members spread the added cost. 20 members, the cost will be less. I will contact those members that voted once it's ready to see what they are wanting done. T

Here is a picture of the color next to the sample inside low light. I need to get some outside in the sun to show the difference. Let me know what you all think. I will hold my judgement till I hear from you all.

This color will require a clear coat to be added to make the metallic "pop", this sample shows with Left side no clear, right side with clear added, chip in the middle. Adding the clear will add to the cost as it's a second coat that will have to be added.

Clear coat side looks spot on to me.

**Bigo1652** · 05-05-2013, 09:55 AM

Looks good T, but it is expected...

Looks good to me to the outside shots will probably just confirm it. That orange is funny with light. Thanks T

That's one of the colors I'm looking at to do my wheels on my 2005 rr. And then I'm painting my fairings a matte white or pearl white.

how do you feel about it T?

**tripage** · 05-20-2013, 07:57 AM

I think it needs more red to match better in the sun.

normal_deviation · 05-20-2013, 06:45 PM

Hmm... In some shots you appear to need red... In other shots yellow may pull the color to get the shade right...

Was thinking the same^ depends on the different light the color is in.

Tripage.. Are you still taking orders for the pearl orange? Is there anyway you could do a cowl cover

Wiezzy · 05-20-2013, 10:40 PM

Actually, send me a quote for powdercoating my rearsets. And let me know if the cowl could be done.

Thank you

The cowl is plastic, this temp coating the plastic can't handle it.
Have to try some other blends to get this right.

Wiezzy · 05-21-2013, 08:23 AM

Okay thanks, I still wanna get my rearsets done so once you get it right. I would like a price.
