SWR/BG is one of those colour schemes that seems to weather differently on every bus, especially sealing wax red. Is your bus locally assembled or imported? I'm assuming it's a Microbus, not a Kombi, since you say it's factory two-tone.

Pics?

It sa westfalia like the one that was at your place. The grey at the paintshop book seems to be much darker. do you advise go as the book says, it is actualy factory codes with the colour.
