Original paint code is on vin plate in drivers footwell or near jack in passenger wing. Made up of a couple of letters and a couple of numbers usually.

If its a non standard paint then just pop down to your local bodyshop supplies and ask to see there colour charts.

Alternatively if you have seen the colour you want on a car somewhere just note down the make model and ring a dealer, they should be able to tell you.
