[PAINT] Flash Silver -- SOLVED



Hey gang,
    I finally solved the riddle of the Flash Silver Paint.

    It turns out that *I* was right and *everyone* else was wrong. :) 
    
    Volkswagen screwed up the paint codes.  After going through pint after pint of "Flash Silver -- LP7Y", there was just no way that color was going to work.

    After much persuading, the paint guy just took my suggestion and mixed up a batch of Polar Silver.  Lo and behold-- an exact match.

    So, if you have a Polar Silver car (Canadian 16v), have them mix Flash Silver, and vice versa.  The color codes are reversed.

    Yay. :)
