How do I find my paint code?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi Guys and Guyesses,
I have an 09 plate Nissan Note Tekna 1.6 auto that has acquired a couple of battle scars. Nothing drastic. Just things like marks round the door handle where a ring has scraped the paint. There's also a tiny scuff on one corner. Nothing needing filler but it could look better for a dab of paint.
I have found a seller of Nissan touch up paint on eBay but he needs a colour code to make certain that I get the right colour.
I tried the Nissan website, round the door pillars and under the bonnet but without knowing just where to look and also with not knowing what kind of format the number is in, it's tricky knowing what I'm looking for.

Any clues would be handy.
Cheers,
Steve

	what colour is the car ? the paint code is on the slam panel - intense blue is BV4 theres paint and theres paint i tend to use paints4u.com and thay use bsb and lechler what are decent brands thay do aerosol and small touch up pots with a small brush (nothing like halfrauds kits) Not long ago I touched up my rear bumper where something got dropped on it. 1 coat let it dry then another nice and simple with a brush, leave it a few days to cure and cut it with some G3/5, polish it up, good as new

	Hi, Flash, My wife is out in the car right now so I can't go and take a look at the slam panel but it's a sort of pale mud colour like this one.
