For more information on paint colors, visit Choosing Paint Colors.

In order to guarantee the accuracy of your color, you must find your vehicle color code.  The vehicle color code describes your color exactly so finding it is important. When you bring up the list of colors for your vehicle, you will see a page that looks like this:

• Acura/Honda - Easy color id plate right on the drivers door jamb. Many Acuras and Hondas have a factory code which makes a difference in the color. More information on the factory code

• Audi - Hidden around the spare tire on a paper tag and can often be loose or folded over. More information on Audi Paint Codes.
• BMW - Usually underneath the hood by the strut towers. More information on BMW Paint Codes
• Chrysler - (AMC, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Plymouth) - Their color code is in the format of PS2 QS2 where the color code is S2 and the "P", "Q", (could be other letters here such as G, T, etc) is just a year code and has nothing to do with the color code at all.

• Ford - (Ford, Lincoln, Mercury) Always on the drivers door jamb, but often they will have the color code above where it says "Exterior Paint Code". The code shown below Exterior Paint Code is usually not the correct paint code. Look for a two character code. Also, you may see CC Met on the color plate which means Clearcoat Metallic and is not part of the color code. Occasionally they emboss the color code right in the middle of the sticker. The important thing here is to first look at our colors, make an educated guess which color is correct and then locate that code on the color plate. More information on:

• GM - (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Geo, GMC, Hummer, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saturn): GM has a fairly confusing code system. For example, the color code 96/WA8867 listed on our site can be shown on your vehicle as: 96U       96L      8867      WA8867      8867L      8867U. Often there will be a BC CC before the color code. This stands for Basecoat/Clearcoat. The U in the paint code means the Upper Color and the L means the Lower Color. Two tone vehicles will have each color coded, i.e. 96U and say 36L. Also, it could be 8867L or 8834U, etc.  Just don't get confused by the BC CC and the U and L. What you are looking for is a match on your color plate that matches at least part of what we show on our site.

Some Mercedes have DB in front of the color code, but most do not. More information on: Mercedes Paint Codes

  Interior colors
  Typically interior colors are a vinyl paint in late model vehicles.. Older vehicles with metal interiors use the same paint used on the exterior. Interior colors are not color coded on the vehicle anywhere so you have two choices. You can borrow our color books or you can also go by a body shop with interior color chips and have them tell you what color code you have. Once we know the color code, we can make the paint.
