Post paint code Q for geeks
I realise wanting to know this makes me an uber geek too, but what's the paint code for the brown engine cowlings?

Or is it a RAL colour or something?

It's quite close to RAL 8016 or RAL 8017, but I'm not sure if there's a pukka cit colour I can have mixed up?

I know it's not "the" colour but I once had some brown hammerite and you could touch the chassis and cowlings up with it it was that close.

Well, I've got two tins of Rustoleum in RAL8017 here, and you might be seeing some of it on AKS400 suspension bits in a few weeks...

Apart from on Portuguese cars of course - as their cowlings were black from new!
