Painting My EVO X Yellow - JUN X

Can anybody confirm the yellow paint used for the JUN EVO X?

Is it the same color code as the 03 EVO 8 Yellow color?

Thanks Guys.

It was a typo, it should have been "Painting My EVO X Yellow - JUN X"

I really want to do this as well.. Mine is now red, and I might be forced to tie in some red to the scheme so that the underhood area matches..

Please post the results and general cost. What color is your X now?

probably is the same paint code as the 03. My LY 03 was re sprayed the factory paint code but in a 3 stage process (base, color, clear) and it had a much richer color to it than the factory paint.. looks very similar to the Jun, I'll see if I have any pictures real quick so you can judge for yourself.

There is no way JUN yellow is the same as '03 yellow. JUN yellow is way brighter and richer; '03 Evo yellow is dull and blah.

Unless you use the same paint code and do a real 3 stage paintjob. The factory single stage paint looks like crap.
