2005 Acura EL Touch Up Paint (6 OEM Colors)

Use the paint code from the Acura EL label and match it to the color page before ordering. The model page narrows the list, but the paint code decides the match.

For the Acura EL, start with the make-specific code guidance: Acura paint color codes are always on the drivers door jamb. Many Acuras and Hondas have a factory code which makes a difference in the color. Typical format: NH-583M, which corresponds to NH-583M Vogue Silver Metallic Clearcoat. Acura uses the same color across models but different names, so the color code is important to order the correct paint; names can vary like Silver Clearcoat or Light Silver Clearcoat. If the label is missing, ask a dealer parts department for a VIN lookup before ordering paint.

The paint code is safer than the color name. Similar names can appear on different years, models, or makes.

Use the paint code guide, check other label locations, or ask a dealer to look up the code by VIN before ordering.

Yes. Body paint, trim paint, wheel paint, textured parts, and special finishes can use different materials or codes for Acura EL. Match the exterior paint code for body-color repairs, and verify a separate finish before ordering paint for trim, wheels, or unpainted parts.

For Acura EL repair, use a pen for tiny chips, a bottle for small chips or short scratches, a spray can for larger areas that can be masked, and PRO sizes for panel or spray-gun work. Choose a kit when the repair also needs primer, clearcoat, sanding, or polishing supplies.
