What color is my car

The car is in the signature. The plate on the firewall says BT4 but I don't think that it's BT4. I am asking because someone will be painting stock front and rear bumpers for me and I need to make sure it's BT4.

There is a BT4 code for Maximas. They are here http://www.paintscratch.com/cgi-bin/makepaint2.cgi
And here
http://www.courtesyparts.com/paint/maxima.html

So what color is it?

The code is not listed on the driver side c pillar. Is there any place besides the firewall that will tell me. How can I decifer the VIN?

This car looks like it's the same color. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2529312/2




Mine is lighter but it was taken in the sun. It still looks brighter even now and it's cloudy outside.

I'm sticking with lakeshore blue. Neptune blue is too dark to be the color of your car.

I called the previous owner and asked but he is not home and the color code is at his house. Wont be back till next week.

This sucks but I must say that whatever color it is it's very sexy.

There is a MAACO near me and I could go ask them tomorrow if they open.


Here is one pics with my old car next to it. My old car was Lakeshore blue but it looks greenish. My current one doesn't. Maybe becuase the old color was worn out.

Does anyone have any Lakeshore blue Maxima pics to compare to mine. I looked online and I only found one with cellphone pics.

This one.



They actually look alike.


What color code is Lakeshore blue exactly? BT4?

Nice website. I used to make websites a few years back and that's one clean setup.

Thanks. Clean is what I was shooting for. Simple, to the point, and full of info.
