....uhmmmm why don't you just have them mix guards red for you?
Nothing special about it..... and it won't cost any more than a GM color code. ??? but I am trying to think what GM car has had a guards red look to it........... uhmmmmmmm

There is a company called paintscratch.com that sells matching
paint for almost any car. They sell it in touch up tubes, spray cans or by the pint, half gallon etc. I got some guards red from them in the spray can. It was an excellent march. |

If you only need a spray can or touch up bottle, why not get it from the porsche main dealer? The touch up tin I got for my S2 matches perfectly and includes a brush.
