Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

16 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

I hope I can find some help here - does anyone have a source for the special paint Violet Chromaflair as used on the 2000 996 Millennium Edition; paint code 3C5? Plenty of comments about the color can be found on the search function, but I have to buy some and need a source. Local shops coming up with no results. Thank you, Paul

Maybe post your question in the Millennium Registry section.

Have you tried automotivetouchup.com? If they don't list it, call them, they will make it for you!

POST 9Original post

Not sure where to find Porsche paint in any volume other than touch-up size, but you have the right paint code, 3C5 for water-based paint and 3C4 for conventional paint. Maybe talk to a body shop or a dealer. Here's the Millennium forum/registry: https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...stry-info.html

POST 10Original post

I might suggest contacting the Porsche Classics Center in Atlanta. I think this is a number for the center, so you'll probably have to ask the receptionist for help redirecting to Classics. [phone removed] Here's a link for email contact to the Porsche Center Assistance. https://contact.porsche.com/usa/dial...ion/contactus/ Hope this helps. If you try them I'd be interested to hear if they're helpful.

Did you happen to purchase one that was in a minor front end collision ?

No not at all - just some minor crinkles in the paint from one time street parking. Paul

Thank you, but found Glasurit provider here who has the necessary tints in sufficient quantity, so I did have to go to Porsche CC, Atlanta. Paul

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you Simonripley for the link. Paul

POST 15Original post

I imagine that is a tricky color to match and blend.

pretty much impossible.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
