1989 FZR400 3EN1, frame colour?

Post by aleck002 »

Hi my front and rear subframes are coated in rust.

I want to respray this but obviously there is no 'fzr400 grey'.

But an abundance of greys and silvers all of which I am struggling to match with the frame?

Has anyone any experience with this or know the exact colour?

Cheers in advance.

Aleck.

Peugeot 'aluminium EZR' was a very good match for the steel frame and subframe on my '89 model FZR600. Don't know if the 400 will be exactly the same though.

It's the colour used on the Pug 206 + 206 CC around 2002-2004 i think. Available cheaply in rattle cans (will need a clear coat over it)from halfords or if you want to use a gun, I can recommend Jawel paints based in the midlands that do mail order via ebay.
If it ain't broke, fiddle with it until it is.
