The color code under the hood on my car says - 752

94 celi hatch..



Looked in alot of stores tryin to see if they got some little touchups for this color but its not in stock I guess. Not sure where to find a paint place because everything is in japanese :\ and it wouldn't matter much anways because they never speak english.. ffs :\ (I live in okinawa)

Baltic Blue Metallic (752)

but that doesn't really look like it, the stock color is usually a bit darker

Just found out that my color is custom.. Repainted before sold to me.

However, I dont know how to make or get this custom color.. any ideas?

Many thanks for this, mine had been painted over on the car.

756 Torquoise metallic clear coat

okay two questions does a gallon of paint cover the whole body plus the engine bay???

and another thing, Im going to buy automotive touch up paint for my 99 Silver celica. http://www.automotivetouchup.com/choosecol...mp;model=Celica

Do I need to apply the clear coat after???

From what I found it takes about 2 gallons, maybe 3 to get a good coat on the car. It takes about 1 coat of primer to do a car though so I don't see why 1 gallon wouldn't cover a car. Maybe not the best but I don't see why not.

EDIT: Looked a tthe site too, it says basecoat only. So I would assume a clear is needed. Thus why they give you some to look at when you choose the paint.

can anyone show me the difference between purple opal and bright iris metallic. i cant seem to find the paint code on my car anywhere and this would be extremely helpful when i sand off the rust on the rocker.

Found a pretty cool link that shows color codes for all GEN Celicas. It shows pics as examples. Glad to find this because I'm planning on getting a full paint job in the near future.

And other Toyota/Scion/Lexus Cars/Trucks/SUVs. XD

why does it say on the first post that a celica gt is a 2.2?

Thats because it is in the U.S. The ST has the 1.8 liter 7A-FE and the GT has the 2.2 liter 5S-FE.
