Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Paint Codes: Notes
Because of late model changes to the available paint colors for each vehicle the current color codes can be found on the Vehicle Certification Label. Refer to VEHICLE CERTIFICATION LABEL, DESCRIPTION .
The first digit of the paint code listed on the vehicle indicates the sequence of application, i.e.: P = primary coat, Q = secondary coat. The first digit listed in the table indicates the option code. The color names provided in the Paint and Trim Code Description chart are the same color names used on most repair product containers.
