You "should" have an ID sticker somewhere in/near/about the left door jamb or A-pillar area. It'll have the paint code.

Is your missing? It also has the VIN, production date, trim code, etc.

Cheers

ooops. Stupid me.

You're doing a color change. I missed that at first.

I'll try to find the code for you

I can probably get to the garage & find the code for you in the morning, but going from memory of the mid 80s brochures with paint samples, it's called Lamp Black. Maybe you can cross reference it.

I've looked at mt XJS reference books thinking one of them would surely have a list of colors and codes but they didn't.

Sorry
