if i remember correctly mate theres at least 3 silver/greys. so would be near impossible to tell from a picture alone if its the one you need

well u saved me a near disaster anyway thanks coyle better keep looking got a nasty dent and about 80 stone chips and been quoted far to much for a respray of the bonnet

How the heck can you NOT know the colour of the bonnet

The colour code is stuck on the underside

you tell me lol man from a breakers rung me after i asked for a quote on that partsgatway and he said he has a bonnet not sure what grey it is though its my choice. i asked him if it has a colour code on the underside he said no :S

out of interest.. how much were u quoted for a respray?

I believe Grigio Steel (same colour as mine) was a phase one Stilo colour, so you could eliminate the Techno Grey if it's off a pre-2003 car. However, again this isn't a sure way of it being the same colour as yours.

I recently got quoted a respray price of £100 a panel, so would presume that's a rough going rate for a bonnet respray, or at least a guide.

hm they could probably sell cakes too (with oven big enough for a stilo it'd be a shame to waste all that heat ) hehe sorry dudes just getting bored.. having said that i've tried buying a bumper via autotrader parts (need 2 parking sensors..) and it was the same (don’t know what the colour is story.. although after a 6 hour wait they did walk up to the car and looked at the colour code)

i got quoted £250 cheapest but that was to blend in with the wings to becuase it would notice to much apparently because off weathering etc. but me bein poor was attempting the cheaper option of breakers lol

That's not a bad price for essentially doing 3 panels really. I've got a small dent in my bonnet, plus the obligatory stone chips, so was thinking of getting a respray myself at some point. However, I think most of the car needs redone. Parking for my job in retail's not been kind on RGZ over the years

If you can get the chassis number (VIN) from the breaker - if logged, you just call the FIAT importer and ask for the color code giving them the number.

i got loads of little doors dings from parking for work in a shopping centre. they eat your car alive . the bonnet got a full coke can dropped on it as i went under a bridge on the m25 u can imagine it left a fair dent. i spoke to the breaker today he has got no more of the car left bsides the bonet. to be onist im not clever but he sounds like he has not got a clue. i would love to be able to get my car a full respray but that will be the day i win the lottery lol.

ah dude - stop worrying about it - i had a 4x4 take my whole side out one beautiful night (car lives outside..) a small dent from a can could be easily popped out (even my severe damage was easily made "acceptable" to look at.. though it did take me 2 days to hammer it all out but paint was not damaged much so no re-spray is needed.. also chips can be filled in using a simple Halfords repair kit.. sooo you can make your car look almost good using your determination and time if cash is running low)

i paid £300, for my bonnet washer jets smoothed out, resprayed, front bumper resprayed, and wings sprayed.
