Medium Sapphire Blue paint code?

[Justin]

Does anyone have access to the factory GM paint codes? Mine seem to be on my RPO sticker which is masked and taped away inside my half-painted Cutlass. :oops:

 

I did ask musthavemuzk for his paint codes, but now the more I look at his car the more I think it might be a darker blue. I'm guessing the paint stores can get the codes for me, but I'd really prefer to have it ready for them.

 

I did google for codes, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

 

The code I got already is WA-L8743.

 

Here's why I'm concerned, maybe it's just a cam difference.

 

musthavemuzk's CS.

 

My old CS. (Sorry this pic shows the color the best.)

I've seen his car.. all I can tell ya, by your picture, is that they aren't the same color.

my Cutlass is is exactly the same color as musthavemuzk's CS.

 

i'll go check my RPO sticker BRB....

Damn, that was the upper color of my old 87 Grand Am.

 

 

Sorry, I didn't save the color code off the SPID, though...

my Cutlass is is exactly the same color as musthavemuzk's CS.

 

i'll go check my RPO sticker BRB....

 

 

here is what my SPID tag reads (bottom line):

 

WA-L8743 U8743 2 OB

 

judging from the pic, mine looks EXACTLY like musthavemuzk's Cutlass. it definately looks different than yours tho Justin.

8743 is blue-black according to the site i was just on

 

8742 should be the medium sapphire blue metallic

 

but that's what one site said...i want to get at least 2 just to make sure

 

grr...i'm getting 8993 from a different site

 

EDIT: ok got it

 

8742 is medium sapphire blue metallic

8993 is medium sapphire blue (non-metallic)

Dude, you rock. I've got to order the paint for the car today so I'll hopefully have it for this weekend. That and the clear, and some sandpaper to sand the primer. Then I'll be set.

Yeah, I actually snooped around that site and your sounddomain site, before deciding it was a bit darker. I think I should definitely take a pic of my RPO tag as well though, seems like it would be a good resource to have.

[musthavemuzk]

that is what it is there for.

for info and help
