where is it you find the paint code for your car, is it under the bonnet, on the metal plate?

Bear in mind though I'm having a front bumper and grill painted and for the Pyrennes Black my car is there are TWO different shades of Black??

Same paint code different paint.

Be careful even if the code is the same you may still be able to tell a difference.

Just a thought

All I was trying to say, maybe I didnt explain it very well, if I had bought a bumper from a Pyrennes Black car with an identical paint code to mine it would not necessarily mean that the shade of black was identical. Mitsubishi decided to make two shades but with the same paint code.

It may not apply with the Hamilton Silver colour I just wanted to forewarn you that when you get it you may notice a slight difference in the colours.

Still all that said a Hamilton Silver Bootlid would be a hell of a lot better than a Roanne Red one :P.

It really depends on how picky you are.

Sorry if I didn't make much sense the first time its bloody hot down south here today :evil2:

All good in my book It is just so hard not to come across as pushy when typing messages and things are so easily taken the wrong way.

Anyhoo yeah Its F-ing hot and not a cloud in the sky. We got aircon here at work but the other people I work with insist on it being set to 22 Degrees :(.

I would much rather it be 18 and yeah I've got a whores ass here at the mo :P

There will be a alloy plate in the engine compartment (probably attached to the bonnet) telling you the color code (among with model, chassi#, engine etc)
Usually 1 letter and 2 digits.

The code itself can be found here
