What colour?

[scirocco-monkey]

Sorry for the daft question but how do I find out what colour my car is? Ok I know it's grey but I need a few rattle cans made up.

Cheers all

There should be a sticker inside the boot with a bunch of codes on it (white paper with black text). The paint code will be two letters, a number and a letter e.g. LA7Y. If you have the original handbooks it is sometimes duplicated in the service book.

There are a few different shades of grey. This site might help if you can't find your sticker:

Word of warning, don't use Halfords for mixing rattle cans, I tried once and the colour was so far out.
I got some from here in the end and the 4 different colours for different cars I've used have been spot on.

Cheers Mark, I try to void Halfruads if I can so I wont be going there for paint. I now know mine is Pewter grey so I'll use that site you recommended.

To be fair to them, the quality of the custom mixed paint from halfords was very good, and not too bad on price if you've got a trade card. Just a shame the colour was a bit off
