Upon my return to the states, my car will be getting some more body work and I'm changing the color. I have been looking for ideas and was wondering if anyone knew a site that had colors and their codes so I can buy exactly what I want instead of going with a trial and error approach... :disappoin :eek7: Thanks

For color names, refer to the factory brochures. Paint codes can be found on the vehicle information code plate in the engine compartment. It is located on the firewall (underneath the windshield). The body color code is the bottom number on the plate.
Comparing the car to another car with a known paint code might not be a good idea - there have been reports that the paint codes differ across the years. However, for 1990, the paint codes were as follows: Body color Exterior code
Light Gray H18
Red R11
Dark red R16
Turquoise blue T13
Dark blue T81
White W12
Black X13
these r the stock colors and their codes of the eclipse. i dont think ur lookin for this my bad

It's cool. I should have specified. I'm looking for house of kolor, and ppg paint colors and codes. If anyone knows where I can at least get names and examples of the colors I'd greatly appreciate it.
