Find Your Chevrolet Bolt Paint Code

Chevrolet did not make it easy to find the color code. Over the years they used many different locations and did not standardize the color plate, so it can be hard to locate. Usually it is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise, the search may extend everywhere. The typical code is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC. Two tone codes can appear as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (U for Upper, L for Lower).

The Color Breakdown

Chevrolet didn't just give the Bolt a paint job; they gave it a personality. With 77 recorded colors, they clearly had a blast in the naming room. While most cars stick to "Silver" and "Black," the Bolt leans into the quirky with names like Limited Addiction Pearl, Black Meet Kettle Pearl, and the undeniably punchy Pow Zinga Metallic. Whether you're driving the electric-vibe Shock Metallic or the berry-inspired Edible Berries Metallic, it's clear that Chevy went all-in on making sure this EV didn't blend into the background.

What to Watch For

If you feel like your Bolt gets a scratch just by you looking at it, you aren't imagining things-owners frequently report that the factory clear coat is a bit "soft" and prone to road rash. You'll also want to keep a close eye on the roof rails and the hood, as early models (especially the 2017s) are known for clear coat peeling and tiny bubbles where the paint meets the trim.

To find your exact match, skip the glovebox. On most Bolts, your paint code is living on a sticker on the driver's side door jamb (B-pillar). You might see a QR code there; scan it with your phone to reveal a string of text, or just look for a 4-character code starting with "WA" or ending in "F" (like 247F). If it's not there, check the floor of the trunk near the spare tire well-Chevy likes to keep us on our toes.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since many of the Bolt's best colors are pearls or high-shimmer metallics (looking at you, Blue Me Away), your touch-up bottle is basically a snow globe. Those tiny metallic flakes settle at the bottom quickly. Shake that bottle for a full two minutes-not just a polite wiggle-to ensure the color looks like the car and not a flat gray smudge. When applying, remember that this paint is thin from the factory, so use the "dotting" method: dab a tiny amount into the center of the chip and let it spread itself out. It requires patience, but thin layers will always look better than a thick glob that never quite levels out.

Before you order Chevrolet Bolt paint

How do I confirm the right color for my Chevrolet Bolt?

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

Where do I find the paint code for Chevrolet Bolt?

For the Chevrolet Bolt, start with the make-specific code guidance: Chevrolet did not make it easy to find the color code. Over the years they used many different locations and did not standardize the color plate, so it can be hard to locate. Usually it is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise, the search may extend everywhere. The typical code is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC. Two tone codes can appear as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (U for Upper, L for Lower). If the label is missing, ask a dealer parts department for a VIN lookup before ordering paint.

Why should I use the paint code instead of the color name?

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

What if the code is missing?

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

Can trim, bumper, or finish differences affect Chevrolet Bolt touch up paint?

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

What product should I choose for Chevrolet Bolt repair?

For Chevrolet Bolt 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.
