I can't seem to find the engine color chart for the optional engine paint. In fact I can't find any current reference to this being an option any more on the 520 or 540. I found some reference to the 565 and 600s

Who is in the know, can I order a 540 in optional colors?

I don't think there are color choices for the 520/540 engine packages. It's probably a good thing, Covid has put Mercury way behind on orders and I bet an engine with a custom color would take 3+ months to get.

Not what I was hoping to hear, this is from the 2019 toronto boat show, 540 display, 12 engine color options. I sent an email to Howard see what they say.

Hope this helps. This was using Safari on an iPhone, could be a browser interface glitch too if you can’t see the same info as my attached pictures.

It brings up an optional Paint Color Chart and to be able to see any Paint Color Chart details, You'll have to hover the arrow mouse cursor over the notes to the right.
