When I ordered my stubby from cravenspeed in October was given the choice of red or black for the 124. Maybe they ran out.
The paint codes are all Mazda paint codes. You should have no problems matching using the door code. and ordering the correct Mazda paint.Tom: This is how I plan to solve this issue. 1. Google "How to match car paint color." That will produce many paint duplicatation companies. 2. Get the paint code, probably near the driver door jam, on a Red Fiat 124 Spider Abarth. Most of the companies found in the Google search have spectrometers that precisely identify colors. Many also guarantee a perfect match. Don't have my Red Abarth yet, but could get the paint code if I could find a Red one at some local Studio.
