Default Paint code

Hi chaps

Need some help, a mate of mine has a white classic, its had a respray in the past but he doesn't think its the original paint code.
He needs to paint his splitter how does he find out the paint code?

No other way unless you get the paint analyzed which will tell you how the colour was made.
Most bodyshops would be able to do that for you.

Take it in and ask one or the painters, he would look at the paint chips and spray some spray out cards in the possible colours. Use them to match a colour, white isn't the hardest colour to match, start with a frozen bright white and slowly tint
