Buy automotive paint in spray they will mix it to be the same as one on picture, I am shure you have some paint shops near you.

Re: Color question for VW Golf v5 with pic

i think automotive paint might be a bit hard to come by as you cant get Imola Yellow here in New Zealand.

Does anybody know the name of the color used on the Porsche 911? i think there is a yellow along the same lines even if it is a bit darker

I think the closest you ll get it Tamiya Camel Yellow over white primer, has a bit of a dark yellow - orangy tint in it, which might suit you well

It looks more like Tamiya's lemon yellow than camel, at least to me!!, or maybe a mix of both

It's closer to lemon yellow IMO.
Here are the Porsche paint codes that you've asked for.

L12G Speed Yellow <<< The darkest yellow from Porsche.
L12L Pastel Yellow <<< Light
L12M Pastel Yellow <<< Medium

RS
