oto Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Have you tried looking on www.fordpaintcodes.co.uk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airmazing Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 hi the paint code is on the vin tag if u look at the tag its black and silver with a row of boxes on the left hand side the paint code is generaly the second code up it will normally be a letter and a number for example h 8 please be aware that when you go to the paint store you will need the paint code , reg number and the year as ford has used the same code throughout the years of manufacture even through the model changes so one code can relate to several different colours ford paint codes are a nightmare hope this helps out rachel x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
