Paint Codes?
« on: Oct 14, 2007, 07:54AM »
Hi, can anyone point me to a list of paint codes for Bluebirds?
Our 96 LX has bluey-silvery-greeny paint, unlike any colour I've seen on this site (tho I'm sure I haven't looked on every thread just yet). The colour/trim code on the ID plate says 'DNO W'.
I've seen the series 2 in silver, silvery-blue, dark green and burgundy. Were there many other colours?

I took my car to a house paint shop who also do car paints
They got the code like you said and mixed the paint up. He has a catalogue of car paint colours

The paint code for your car is DM0, W is the trim colour.
Polar white is QM1. Not very many colours, burgandy, white, black (stormcloud grey or something), silver, green-blue, emerald and I think that's it...

I stole this from the bluebird attesa yahoo group:



It appears to be the production numbers, and includes the colour codes on the left hand side :) (I bookmarked it almost as soon as I found it)
