So it has been repainted? Well that would explain the off color from the factory tarmac black.

And like it has already been said, Tarmac black = Labrador black pearl, as they have the same exact paint code. What happen was when your car was repainted, the paint shop didnt correctly mix that paint to make the "tarmac black/Labrador black pearl" color (if you dont know, they have many "base" colors/tints and mix those in correct proportions to get XXXX color).

So what you have isnt "Labrador black pearl". Its just a mistake/painting error. It is a one of a kind color though, because of that mistake.

Glad you like it though

Are you the original owner? If not, it could have been painted before you owned it.

Who cares about the color. Your thread's about your build right? Nice numbers.
