Finally after waiting for months, colorrite came out with the '04 red paint. I had to touch up my right side fairing and paint my inner fairings around the tank. I sent them around $300 for 1 QUART of base coat and 1QUART of topcoat (no, not a misprint). The factory paint has a pink basecoat and red topcoat. Colorrite sends me WHITE basecoat and a red topcoat with a slight blue tint to it.I called them and they said those colors are different from the actual factory colors, but they are correct and when both applied, they will give me a perfect match.......BULLSH**!!! Dull pink!!!! So we had to invent a red to spray which is damn,damn close but not exact.So now we have to do the whole damn bike for it all to match. They gonna make this white boy act a fool!!!
colorrite SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

I emailed them about the 03 anniversary copper/orange cause I'd like to paint my mirrors and bar ends. They responded with this

Did you apply the white first then the red on top, or mix it??
Mixing will deffinately be pink.

I think you are confusing them when you ask for '03 Anniversary Copper/Orange. It seems as if you are asking about a two color Busa rather then a single color Busa. While I don't know what the official name of the 40th Aniversary Busa is called, I know it isn't Copper/Orange.
The white was supposed to be applied first then the red, which I did but it didn't work. I'm calling them today again for a refund...if not, I hope they get 200 emails from you guys telling them you won't buy from them. The only good thing is that my new color is actually better than what I had, and it's still red like I wanted but I'll have something different next time I'm at a bike meet and 5 other SE models show up. It's just all my time and $ wasted I'm pissed about.
