not a prob if they dont look right ill try again it really depends on the pic if there is sunlight or shadows it messes up my color scale
 
also if anyone is looking to try a awsome bronze color for wheels try this..... 0.09L,0.48M,0.39M.....BRONZE
Also just came up with a great COPPER .....0.07M,0.65R,0.71L
 
here are a few GOLDS not sure what your looking for so thats why i am putting a few versions up...GOLD (1) 0.14R,0.61L,0.70M....GOLD (2) 0.15M,0.81L,0.37L......GOLD (3).. 0.12R,0.25L,0.42L....
 
Which wheels? I've noticed that colors look different depending which wheel you pick.
it really depends i think the artificial light in the game on some of the wheels is not good at all,usually when i pick a color i try that color on wheels for the most accurate color representation..
 
I tried with this guide to get the Nissan R34 GTR "Millenium Jade" Colour!

I got the RGB numbers! Only have paint and converted them to HSB and HEX code! And the result is a really nice "Millenium Jade" couler!

But in Forza is nothing like that ! :/

H 0,194
S 0,038
B 0,17

Someone allready have the Jade HSB numbers?
 
I know i stand a risk of sounding dumb here, but something is really bugging me when i painting my cars, can anyone help?

i know you can paint your car virtually any colour, thats excellent, but my problem lies when i want to paint a vinyl colour a metallic or special colour, like the gold stripes on that Lotus above for example, is it possible? I dont have Photoshop or anything like that..Can you only mix basic colours??

anybody?

You can only color your vinyls matte. There are some tricks to make them seem shiny or metallic though, like putting the vinyls on metallic paint and reducing the transparancy. Also, you can paint the entire car in the special color you´d like and work your way around it with the vinyls. (So with the Lotus, you would first paint it entirely gold metallic and put all the black on with vinyls later)
 
I have a request, not sure if its possible though.

red anodized aluminum, like AN fittings or AN wrenches.

its kinda a weird almost matte almost gloss finnish, anyone think they can get something simmilar?
 
I am going mad. I downloaded a flying lizard livery for my Porsche 550. I love the silver on it but can not figure out how to replicate it. Does anyone know how to make a polished aluminum type paint? I want to use it for my own livery.

Why should you use the color chart? Take a look at this image I made comparing our color codes (body/fender) vs. the stock Forza colors (hood). as you can see all four colors are off to varying degrees the red and yellow are both different from the game valves but these two are pretty colse in the game.
