New to the group. I have a couple questions.

Tony,
I think just about everyone agrees that the Sprint looks great in Pistachioover white but I have yet to meet anyone who is totally sure that they could live with it!!
Similarly the Colorado Orange.
Cheers,
Pete

There was a pistachio green over white Sprint..I know as I have one.(now
painted red) and a fellow Lotus Owner in Manhattan, NYC, has one still the
original color..
I think perhaps the artist just made the wrong shade of green

Thanks Pete. I must have been mistaken. I think I will still paint the car
in these colors. Here is a link to a painting showing four sprint colors
and BRG being one of them. But the artist must have been mistaken.

Chris,
As far as I know, BRG was never an option on Sprints.
Cheers,

I own an Elan FHC that I am interested in painting in sprint colors.
BRG/Gold/White. I have the Elan Factory Lotus paint color codes and there
are a lot of versions of BRG on the list that lotus apparently used. I live
in Minnesota, would a local auto paint shop have a tool for looking up
Lotus' original colors? Would the paint codes and supplier spec No's
meaning anything to these people when I order the paint?
Also, the head liner on my car is in serious need of replacement. Any
advice on how to replace and fix my headliner? I appreciate the help!
