SimonB Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 It's on the chassis plate under the bonnet, drivers side, along with the VIN no. etc. 6NO is the code for gunmetal IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffvalenti Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Alex You'll find the paint code on the information tag under the bonnet on the drivers side inner wing. The code is staped under the word colo(u)r Codes are 6NO for Gunmetal 1B9 for Quicksilver the 2 colours are easily confused unless you see 2 cars next to each other, then Quicksilver is obviously the best I bet you can't wait to get it. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sakura Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 SimonB is correct - the code for gunmetal is 6N0. Further details and pics of the engine tag here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra-alex Posted February 24, 2005 Author Share Posted February 24, 2005 sons of bitches your right they do BUT wouldn't it be a different code for metallic as opposed to base paint ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 sons of bitches your right they do BUT wouldn't it be a different code for metallic as opposed to base paint ? Well, yes (not sure what you're getting at really). The colour code listed on the VIN plate is the colour the exterior of the car was painted in when the car was new. OK?

geoffvalenti Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 The code, as Jake says, is for the base paint. That gives you the colour and any metallic properties, its painted with clear (lacquer) afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
