Hi All.

Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to all.

I've just acquired a a WRX import and it could do with a bit of tlc on the bodywork. It's black - how can I find out the right colour code (or is black just, er, black?).

thanks

Dave

 

paint code will be on the VIN plate

 

in what form?

 

Firstly thanks and secondly, good question - what to look for on the VIN plate. Assume a code - just hand it over to a car paint place and say "mix me some?" Or is there another (cheaper!) way?

 

it should say colour, with a number next to it.

and yes just say mix me some. halfords can do it, in a paint can or brush thingey

but take your car to them, they are all happy to help you

 

Try this :-

Subaru Paint Codes

IIRC on the left hand side of the plate there will be two 3 digit codes...the top code is trim code and the bottom one paint code

 

thanks for that mark, can sort mine out naw

 

You guys are good! Thanks for all the advice/help.
