Where to Find the Paint Code on Your Car
Have you been asking yourself “how do I find the colour code of my car?” Look no further! All cars registered in the UK have a manufacturer paint code, but the location of this code varies depending on the vehicle brand, model, and year.
The paint code is most commonly found in one of the following places:
- Inside the driver’s or passenger’s door
- Under the bonnet, often on the bulkhead
- In the boot area, near the spare wheel well
- In the service book or vehicle documentation (for some manufacturers)
The paint code is usually a short combination of letters and numbers and may be labelled as Paint, Colour, Paint Code or Colour Code.
