It’s surprising how many people overlook the obvious spots. Have you checked behind the rear seats? Sometimes there’s a tag tucked away there!
That’s a great point! I’ve found some really useful information hidden in those nooks myself.
Looking for the code feels like a treasure hunt sometimes! Just keep searching until you find it; it’s out there waiting for you.
Hey there! You can usually find the GM color code on a sticker located inside the driver’s door or under the hood. Look for a two-digit code next to the word ‘BC/CC’.
Great tip! Also, you can check the VIN online; some sites can decode it to show you the color code.
Does anyone have a good recommendation for sourcing GM color paint for touch-ups? I want to avoid mismatches!
I found that PaintScratch offers a variety of colors. Just enter your code, and they’ll mix it for you!
When matching paint, remember to test a small area first. Even factory colors can vary slightly due to sunlight and wear!
Absolutely! I learned that the hard way with my last project. Always better to be cautious.

True! I once tried a DIY on a small scratch and ended up with a blotchy finish. Lesson learned!
Anyone else find DIY painting to be a bit of a gamble? I swear it’s either flawless or a complete disaster! 
Haha! I hear you! I once painted my car in the garage, and it looked like a toddler did it. Good times!
At the end of the day, it’s all about what you’re comfortable with. Don’t hesitate to ask a pro if you’re unsure!
