    Story is, my girlfriend is in costa rica and her sisters been driving her car, well her sister wrecked it somehow, and I got the pieces to fix it out of the junkyard, BUT they need painted and all the paint code stickers on the car are gone.... I tried google and came up with nothing. Maybe someone knows the name of the color?

    Heres a few pics of the color: (last one is of the wreck.)

    This is the same color as her car:


    This is her car:


    It looks worse than it is, the back bumper is pushed in farther on the drivers side, and the drivers side quarter panel is bent up and wrinkled along the wheel well.... I have a feeling my girlfriend is going to hurt her sister, she's crazy about keeping her car neat and clean, well someone spilled vasoline on the carpet and let it melt in the sun... and she spent a good 3 hours tinting those taillights, now 1 of them has to be replaced. What a shame....


    Anyway, thanks in advance for helping with the paint code.

    Why not take it to a local body shop, they can match it up.

    For some reason, I thought the paint code was inside the trunk lid. I can't remember hwy I would think that, though. Couldn't hurt to check.

    It's all fixed, put back together. The henges and stuff are bent so it looks a little goofy. Oh well, time to buy her a GTP or a G6
