    Hey all

    Need to find out what silver came out on the Calais (top colour) and on all the long wheel base ie: statesman

    My vs is silver ice, and I know the vs gts came out in mink silver. Is it only these 2 silver colours in the vr-vs range?

    Cheers

    Ok well I've found this paint code chart GM Holden Colour Codes but I dont know if some of the silvers/colours are available across the full range or only on a select model ie: swb/lwb.

    Any knowledge or input is appreciated.

    There was Silver Ice MK I and II

    I believe the MK I was used on the VR's and the early series 1 VS Equipe's and the MK II was used on the VS Stato's and Calais

    Mine is MK II and a VS SII Exec, so Ice MK II must have covered all in the series II range.

    Awesome, that's the kind of info I was after :) mines mkII also, which I had no idea existed. The m-z page I used, but posted the first page, as it's the start in case there was more silver in there.

    Just looking at statesman as well as Calais parts, and if I can I'll chase the same colour silver.

    Is there any calias or statesman out there in silver mink?

    Just seen the message in your PM, I think I still have my old Bumper in Silver Mink somewhere.

    I can try and find where I put it if your still in need of one.

    Cheers for the link, unfortunately it doesn't even list silver mink. But gives me a few more colours.

    Central coast to melb might cost a few bob, to get down here.

    Shadow Grey is the bottom half.

    Ah didn't see the location. Would cost more then the bumper is worth.

    Maybe they changed it on the SII

    I sprayed the inserts on my body kit Shadow Grey and it is the same as my mates Calais.
