Call the dealer with the VIN and tell them you want to know what the COLOR CODE of your vehicle is. Also most dealers have books that will list the color codes of their vehicles for the tubes of touch-up paint they sell.

Check your driver side door jam. Alot of times the actual color name is there. I cant remember the website, but there is one that gives the codes from the # of your plate that is on the firewall. Its like the last 3 digits of the code on the metal plate on your firewall.

the paint code is somewhere on the firewall or the door jamb. if you go to courtesyparts.com they list the paint codes on the touch up paint section of the site.
