steve mcqueen 1,796 Posted January 27, 2017 Saw brambles red on a XC GXL from factory years ago. I had to respray the bonnet for the owner. 3 different brambles red from my knowledge so make sure you get the correct colour for your car. 3 CHESTNUTXE, Xcgxl and dunsta87 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHESTNUTXE 7,261 Posted January 27, 2017 correct me if i am wrong but brambles red is just a fleet code for vermillion fire isnt it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dex 2,065 Posted January 27, 2017 Thought it was a combination of brambles red and track red that produces vermilion fire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bear, yeah me still lurking about, i pop in from time to time. I was living in Mudgee NSW at the time and the car belonged to a friend. That would have been 17 years ago?? I dont know what my mate Mark did with the Falcon, i dont think he owned it very long. I have not spoken to him either for prolly 10 years?? 1 bear351c reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
