what is the name of the pearlescent orange you get in k11's? the reason I ask is because i accidentally knocked into a friends k11 in a pearlescent type orange colour, he needs a new back bumper and says it is £400 per litre of paint in this colour, is this true?

Hmm... Must be that rare Nissan option of platinum-gold alloy with pure cocaine scratch-n-sniff finish. Tell him to bog off, and doesnt he know black goes with everything!

that paint is expensive 400 sounds about right same sort of price as the limited edition primera p11 gt's paint, respraying it to match the rest of the car will be hard and it will never look 100% matched again

You won't find one unless theres a k11 being broken. Quite rare if you ask me. I've only seen a couple of these colours about! Is the knock that bad? Do you really need to re-spray the whole bumper?

Oooooh. Thats not good. The best thing you can do is phone around and find out the diff prices available. Also keep an eye out on e-bay for a cheap new bumper which sometimes appear.

On another note, get the paint code colour and take it down to halfords and ask how much it is to mix up, they do flip paint and may be able to match it for cheaper if your lucky.

You wont get it from halfrauds as theres only one manufacturer of this paint in the world and nissan no longer sell it. There are a couple of companies that still sell it in this country though. try Lechler on 01606 738600 guessing it will be cheaper than £400 a litre though

I think the £400 was just a guess.

The official name, in case they didn't tell you, is Chromaflair. I saw a Mystique last week, I was quite shocked!
 
I also own the Micra pictured and have lots of close friends who work for a Nissan dealer, hense buying one for cheaper servicing ect. Have had a prick try to steal her recently and damaged the passengers front door so I'm trying my hardest to find someone breaking one. Yes the aztec chromaflair paint cost £400 a litre. Please contact me if anyone knows of the mentioned door for sale.
