They can match the # and paint to your bike....just my thoughts...

| I had a Sinister BluePearl 98( hence the name) and PPG matched the pearl to a tee bring them in a flat pc of the bike or whole bike and they scan it and match it and will sell you 1/2 pint - scan will match to your current colour allowing for fade if any but make sure you wash what ever you take in!
And call it a tourpak not a case that sounds like your takin it to work or somthing

| Pearl colors are sometimes very hard to match. Especially ordering it with a code and having someone make up the formula. In this case the best thing to do if you really want to insure a perfect match is to purchase the color from the dealer. There are some companies out there that specialize in motorcycle colors only, you could seek them out also. Automotive colors are the worst, they hardly ever match. When I have to mix a color for a vehicle it almost always has to get field match and blended. At least with the scoot the parts break up, and is a little more forgiving...
