Paint Question

[limabee]

Does anyone know of any online store that you can order paint for a specific year and make vehicle? Also, where would I find the paint codes for my 90 SSE?

Thanks all.

I don't know where to order paint, but the paint code should be on the bottom of the RPO sticker. The sticker is on the spare tire cover in the trunk, I believe, for 87-91's.

I have ordered from them in the past, perfect match. I just ordered 2 more bottles for my flips yesterday.

Under the trunk carpet you'll find this sticker on the spare tire cover




The bottom line is the paint codes. On my White 1990 Bonneville, this line reads:

"BC/CC" = Base coat Clear Coat

The multiple references to "8554" indicate the white paint on the car. Since mine is a solid color, the codes are the same. On a two-tone paint job, the codes would be different numbers ("U" denoting the upper body color of the car, "L" is the lower body)

IIRC the last code in the sequence "15B" is the trim color...which in my case is Dark Gray Metallic (around the windows, and the seperator between the door glass )

Thanks for the breakdown. I'm going to be ordering paint for it soon.
