None, looking now!
Does anyone know where I can find the paint code for my 07 Attak GT.
I have the candy apple red with metallic flakes in it.

Thanks.....

5253 Red (candy red), 1253 Silver Metallic base coat. Your gonna have a terrible time matching the paint. I tried and couldn't even get close. You have to put the silver down first and then the candy. You have to put several coats of the candy down to get it to match the factory color. I had a paint specialist paint some side panels that came with my Excell exhaust and it didn’t match very well so touch up will be almost impossible.

Thanks for the link. Maybe I better get a pro to paint my side panels. I want them painted and are very large parts and I want them to match the hood and other plastics perfectly. Thanks for the help.....

About the only way to make it look right is to paint all the panels at the same time. Some paints are impossable to match.
