JBOB 0 Posted November 13, 2005 Is there two different types of black that VW used on the Corrado ?? I always thought there was just one L041 (Black 1988 till 1995) but I have also found this LA9V (Brilliant black 1991 till 1995) I assume that Brilliant black is metallic but I dont think Ive ever seen a C in that colour. Has anyone got one or a pic of one and how does it look ?? Which of the two blacks suits the Corrado best :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue_Joe 0 Posted November 13, 2005 There is a metallic black used on some of the later cars and a flat black L041. My car is in the banner at the mo and that is L041 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JBOB 0 Posted November 13, 2005 Check the buyers guide as I think I attached a paint-code doc to it... I cant find it. I thought it was in the Cars forsale section :roll: My car is in the banner at the mo and that is L041 Nice car dude 8) Agreed 8) 8) I think it must be a hard colour to photograph as I cant see any real difference between the two :roll: The metallic black does look a little bit lighter on some of the pics ive seen :roll: Ive always liked your car Steve :wink: One of my favourites :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevemac 0 Posted November 13, 2005 Cheers J The metallic black has flakes of green & flakes of red in it. Looks different in different lighting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevemac 0 Posted November 13, 2005 Metallic black is quite pale, so far as black goes - more of a dark grey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
