Evo 4-6 paint

Hey guys,

I was just wondering, does anyone of you know what the color code for the "Scotia White" is for the evos 4-6? I'll be having my bumper painted, and I wouldn't like a dupont finish that's way too shiny... I noticed that new evos don't really have that sort of "wet look" off the dealer.

What brand is the best to use? I just don't like it to be "car show" shiny and all... just to bring it back to stock, as I will only be painting the bumper for all the chips and bruises over the years.

Thanks to all!

thanks guys, i'll be checking this with the paint guy I've chosen... i'd just want to showroom look and not a car show look, i've seen a friend's X and quite honestly, it's been a while since i've last seen a brand new evo! so this guy had it in white, and i noticed that it just didn't have that deep gloss that repaints get, that's what i'm trying to achieve here...

Thats what we get for owning a V RS. We get it as raw as sushi In Cebu though, I saw a flat black Evo V! It looked good though!
