Been a bit dead in the Healey section so I thought I'd put up some pictures of my louvers in their final configuration. I tried getting away with just painting the hood with the same color code used when the car was restored but it's going to need some adjustment.

Hood looks great. Never seen a paint code for modern paint be that far off!! I'm thinking either to code was wrong or it was mixed wrong.
Very nice.
Rob,
Turns out you were right. Took the bonnet to a hot rod paint shop that said they could do a better color match. They mixed up the paint to the code and without any tinting got a match. This is the result

Apparently, the original paint supplier mixed the formula wrong.
Much better.
Yep, definitely way better. Looks good now
