2011 Lamborghini Touch Up Paint (5 OEM Colors)

The 2011 Lamborghini Vibe

2011 was the year the stealth fighter finally landed on the street. While the Gallardo was still screaming its V10 swan song in flavors like the Superleggera, the Aventador LP 700-4 arrived to make everything else look like a rounded-off bar of soap. This was the peak "Poster Car" era, where the colors had to be as loud as the exhaust notes. In our database, we've tracked the real survivors of this year-the icons that defined the decade. We're talking about the deep, multidimensional soul of Rosso Vik Tricoat and the legendary Arancio Argos Tricoat, the glowing orange that launched a thousand wallpapers.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. By 2011, the robots in Sant'Agata had become masters of efficiency. They figured out exactly how little paint they could spray while still making the car look like a million bucks under showroom LEDs. The result? A finish that's visually stunning but about as thick as a sticky note. Because these cars sit three inches off the asphalt, that thin factory clear coat takes a beating. If you look closely at the wedge-shaped nose of a 2011 Gallardo or Aventador, you're likely seeing "road rash"-tiny, white peppering from sand and pebbles that the brittle, thin clear coat couldn't deflect.

Restoration Tip

When you're dealing with 2011-era tricoats like White Mica or Arancio Argos, you aren't just "painting"-you're performing a three-act play. These are multi-stage finishes: a solid base, a translucent mid-coat (where the magic/pearl lives), and then the clear. The golden rule for this era: build your layers slowly. Because the factory paint is so thin, a heavy "blob" of touch-up will sit high and look like a mountain on a flat plain. Apply your base thin, let the mid-coat provide the glow, and don't rush the process. If you try to do it in one shot, the metallic flake will sink to the bottom and the match will look "off" the second the sun hits it.
