Finding your Jaguar Paint Code
Location of Jaguar Paint CodeJaguar codes are usually on the drivers door jamb. On older Jaguar models, the color code can be ANYWHERE! Under the hood, in the trunk. It's like they had a contest to see where they could hide it.
The typical color code format is:
1957/HGZ
corresponds to Jaguar Racing Green Pearl.
Some Jaguars will have the 1957 code but most will only show the HGZ code.
Same Color Code, Different Name
Jaguar, like all manufacturers, uses the exact same color across many
models and then will have a different color name for each model. It's the
same paint! This is why the color code is so important to order
the correct paint.
For example, 1957/HGZ above we call Jaguar Racing Green Pearl. It could also be called Racing Clearcoat, Green Performance Clearcoat, etc. depending on what the marketing department decided to call it.
