Actually, for 91-newer vehicles, the VIN will help for paint codes. I can look them up for you on a per car basis if you need it in our computer. All I need is the last 8 digits of the vehicle's VIN. IT is actually on the botttom of the SPID label too. If you get the code, any paint shop can tell you what color that code is for the particular make and model. Also, the Plasti-kote catalog has all the common paint codes in it. If you ask nicely, I'm sure someone that carries Plasti-kote paints could get you a copy.
