Hi All,
Just wanted to let everyone know that Lowes has Valspar rattle cans that are so close to the newer blue/gray Kubota color that the difference is negligible. The color is "Cobalt". It is an acrylic enamel like the Kubota cans for around 5 bucks. Looks great on my floor pan and PVC Chain holder I adopted from the customization forum.

Still looking for an alternative to the orange on my 2001 B7500. If anyone knows of a match, let me know. ;)

Tractor Supply has both the old and new Kubota orange. And yours being a 2001, you probably need the new Kubota orange.

A six pack would just make me mad:p I wasn't aware that TSC had Kubota colors. I'll check em out this afternoon on the way home. Ireops, I had assumed that I needed the "new" orange, but its nice to have some verification. I only hope TSC sells theirs for less than my local "Bota" dealer.

On a side note, whre has anyone mounted a drink holder? I have the FEL, so access to the sides of the instrument panel is limited, no room on the fenders because of levers, yadda, yadda, yadda. Have a good one, All!

My 2001 has the more "grey" color and the Valspar is a dang close match if anyone wants to give it a shot. I'm quite satisfied with the color. I know it's not OEM, but with the exception of the ROPS, mine mostly stays the color of... DIRT! :D
