Mine is568 signal red what would be the lower panel colour or am I being stupid
Corsair Red or Tartan Red, depending on the year.

Earlier cars were Corsair, later ones Tartan. The two colours look identical until you get them next to each other.

Some new photos to entertain you...

I took my paint detail plate off the car to clean up the corrosion underneath it and to try and figure out what the numbers mean back in the comfort of my office:

The only number on the plate that matches with Item 31 ("paint") in the original Vehicle Data Card is "147" (Arctic White):

...anyone able to identify which numbers on the plate specify colours for the plastic lower-body panels and interior fabric???
