2010 Domestic and Foreign Vehicles Color Identification Plate
The only way to accurately order touch-up paint is to know
the color code for your vehicle. You may be lucky and own say a 2010 Subaru that lists only one color of white. However, you still need to
verify the color code as perhaps the white shown on our site was not the
white used on your vehicle! On the other hand, you could own a 2010
F-Series which lists numerous red colors and deciding which one from
looking at the colors shown is impossible. For example, a Red Metallic
Clearcoat and a Garnet Red Metallic Clearcoat look very similar on the
screen, but can look VERY different on your car. In this case, you
must find the color code for your vehicle.
All vehicles carry a color identification plate that is
located in various places on the vehicle depending on the model. Use the
picture below to locate the color identification plate for your vehicle.
Next, find the colors for your vehicle and look at the color codes shown
for all possible colors. Write these down and go out to you vehicle and
check for the correct code. If the color of your car doesn't seem to
match the color shown on your computer but the color code matches, then
you have correctly identified the color. We manufacture the touch up paint
according to the color code, NOT color names.
Sometimes these codes can be tricky to find. For example,
on some cars, the color code is located in the trunk as shown below, but
it actually is under the trunk carpet next to the spare tire. These
locations are starting points. They can even vary on the same
models!

owners, take note! Look for the words "Exterior
Paint Colors" below. Right above it (not below!) is the
color code. You would think the color code would be 54D.
But the actual color code is ABOVE the words and is 19.

Special note on 2010 Honda and Acura. You must find your
color tag and look for the factory code. It can be
listed by the color code or elsewhere on the tag.
This code is the factory code and is part of the paint color.
For example, the color below would be listed as B-89P-Aon our site because of the letter A.
This
letter will usually only be A-Z or 1-9
