RS Colour coded roll cage

[paul summers]

Ok I am taking delivery of my Green RS in August and as it is to be used for tarmac allying immediately on arrival I have ordered extra wheels, belts,ignition switch.4.0/1 final drive and 40/60 diff options. As most of this is to be fitted by Porche in Australia it has been all preordered and arrived at the dealership last week. I went to have alook at the front roll cage and noticed it was not colour coded as per the fitted cage in the rear of the car. I have been told this is standard and customers have to have the front half coloured themselves. This to me is ridiculous ,has anybody else had this experience ????

Yes, I have a rear (Porsche) bar coming in at Farnbacher-Loles in Connecticut USA (mid northeast seabord). It was available as black only.

- I am having it powder coated orange. Sidebar: according to F-L the correct Porsche color code for GT3 RS orange is: "L8C6" (if your trusted paint shop can match by code).

Suggestion: Get a can of green Porsche touch up paint from your dealer (or other color of your choice) & give it to your paint or coating guy to match & compare. Also note that powder coatings cannot be mixed to paint codes... (i.e., can be matched by visual comparison only).
