Please forgive me if I have missed a color. Please feel free to post your paint code with the corresponding name, and I'll add it to the list. I'm eventually hoping if we get a large majority of these filled in, we can add it to the FAQ just for general info. I owned my car for nearly 2 months before I knew the name of the color...

 

where are the paint codes located on a 4th gen i30? i looked in th pass. side door jam and under the center console lid, lots of info but no code.

 

by the way, this is a good idea. every one should post their codes, unless this info is already archived somewhere here

 

Brilliant Silver = KY0

 

I am not ENTIRELY sure, but it should be directly under your windshield, nearly dead-center on the firewall. But I'm not that good with 4th gens.

 

Deep Evergreen - DP0

just found this out tonight, actually.

 

Thanks, added it.

Anyone else?

 

I own a 2000 i30t and the color is Olive Green. Wondering what code it is.

Wondering if this color is Millenium Jade Metallic.

 

yes, it is. What's the # on the plate to the rear of your engine compartment so I can add it to the list?

 

Millenium Jade Metallic - JW0

 

2002 I35 - Ivory Pearl - QX1

 

1997 I30- Pebble Beige Metallic- CG2

 

FYI, the 3 digit color code can be found on this plate which is attached to the passenger side of the fire wall.

 

Added. bout 1/4 of the way. keep em comin.

 

SWEET!!! After many, many, many hours of digging around online, I have found a reputable site for finding paint codes and touch-up paints.

I have input all the ones I know from when I was car shopping for my I30, but I dont wanna "guess" at the rest of them, so please check this site out if I have missed your paint code and let me know which one it matches up to.

Input your Year, Make, and Model in the middle of the screen and match up your codes so we can get this in the FAQ !!!

 

autumn bronze pearl- et1

 

whats the letter stand for thats after the 3 digit paint code?

 

it says "color, trim"...i'm guessing chrome vs. painted? or maybe the color of pinstriping or something?

 

6 more to go. (actually 7, but 1's a repeat.)
Thanks for everyone helpin out so far.

 

Bump for more info. Anyone else check out this site to add their code to the list?

Bump for any more info. I saw a question regarding this in a recent thread.

I30ds, think it's complete enough to cut and paste it in the FAQ yet. The remainder you can guess at if you want, but these are the verified codes I have found.

 

the closest that i can come up with is red pearl clear and i haven't seen another car with that same color

 

I believe thats royal ruby pearl "AX5", but check your paint code under your hood on a plate that looks like this.

 

I completed the list and added it to the FAQ.

 

cool thanks

 

Thanks for finishing it. I didnt wanna guess then have some1 jump down my throat about something.
