does anyone have a paint code or RAL number for the ford focus RS,the blue one not the orange one
i think the st170 is the same colour aswell

Thanks Antony

I would doubt it's got a RAL number. Most likely a Ford matching. Isn't it Ford Racing Blue?

if its ford racing blue that would help me out a bit

I went down to local motor factors today and looked at their paint charts couldnt find anything , she said if i had a code they could easily mix it for me

i did think about going to ford car dealers and asking them but thought i would ask here first

thanks Antony

To be honest I think I would ask a ford dealer, (service bit) no reason why they shouldn't divulge the info, if its for your 7 they would prob get into conversation about that too, most petrol heads do.

Yes its for the locost nearly at the painting stage and thats the colour ive decieded on

The ford code for Imperial Blue is Q3 (on an 03 plate Focus RS)

It changes depending on the year of the Focus, if it's an 02/52 it would be Q2

I think its called ford performance blue. I got an aerosol mixed up in halfords as I'm thinking of going for the same colour,

The official colour name is imperial blue.

Ford do not have codes as such, try searching the above for the names

Oh I think performance blue is the Focus ST colour, apologies if i threw anyone of the scent.
