Default 1993 CBR600 F2 Lilac paint code

I need to try and find the correct spray paint to do some touching up with on my PC25 the front mudguard has a couple of scuffs right on both outer front edges as does the rear tail panel. The right side of the top fairing near the indicator also needs work as does the edge of one of the tail side panels so need to find the correct paint code. My question is, does anyone know the correct paint code for the Lilac color and where I can get it from in the UK? Please see image of bike supplied.

I don't know the answer to your question but I have to say that is one sharp paint combo. We don't have that one in the States and I've never seen it. Very pleasing to my eye.

It is a 1992 Model year Type 8 with paint code of NH1E, not really sure how to get the lilac from that but should be a good pointer.

Thanks for that buddy much appreciated I'll look into it, I've found the left tail side panel and the centre tail panel in colour I'm going to send for them in a day or two it's just the nose cone/headlamp fairing I need to touch up now that and the front mudguard. Now looking to replace the right side main fairing panel hoping one turns up 'and in the correct livery.

Thanks Hamlin, yeah it does look the part in this livery but it will look a whole lot better once I get all the replacement matching panels fitted along with hopefully if I can find one, a replacement right side fairing, all the ones I'm finding at the moment are left sides must be that everyone lays them down on the right (facepalm). Once I get all the plastics/livery sorted I'll polish and wax it all and then store it all away until I can get the rest of the bike sorted out. The plan is to change out the black swingarm and hugger for silver replacements fit a nice set of black wheels with new tyres and respray the fork bottoms in silver which is how it "should look. The whole thing needs a good bit of restoration work I'm just waiting for the good weather to come back around so I can get to it but I'll get it there.
