2025 Lotus Touch Up Paint (2 OEM Colors)

The 2025 Lotus Vibe

By 2025, Lotus was pulling a high-wire act-balancing the high-octane swan song of the Emira against the silent, heavy-voltage charge of the Eletre. It was a year of "last chances" and "new beginnings," and the color palette reflected that tension. We've focused our collection on the heavy hitters that actually defined the tarmac: Atlantis Blue, a metallic deep-dive that looks like a tropical storm at midnight, and Chrome Orange Tricoat, a retina-searing tribute to the brand's racing soul. These weren't just colors; they were loud statements for cars that were designed to be looked at as much as they were driven.

Paint Health Check

Welcome to the Thin Paint Era. Back in '25, the factory robots were tuned for "efficiency," which is just a fancy way of saying they sprayed the bare minimum to make it shine on the showroom floor. If you're looking at an original Emira, check the door panels for "blistering"-a notorious quirk of this era where moisture or primer issues caused the finish to bubble like a bad sunburn. Between the ultra-thin clear coat and the soft factory finish, these cars are rock-chip magnets. If the previous owner didn't wrap it in plastic the second it left the dealer, you're likely looking at a "starry night" of road rash on that low-slung nose.

Restoration Tip

When you're touching up a 2025 finish, remember: Respect the Robot. The factory didn't use a lot of material, so you shouldn't either. Don't try to fill a chip with one big "blob" of paint; the solvent won't outgas properly, and you'll end up with a soft, dull spot that stands out. Instead, build your layers slowly with thin, precise strokes. If you're working with that Chrome Orange Tricoat, patience is your only friend-layer the mid-coat until the depth matches, then seal it. Don't rush it, or you'll be staring at a patch that looks like a different zip code.
