Paint code

Post by G29Z4 » Sun Mar 26, 2023 6:27 pm

I’m sure this has been asked before, but I can’t find any mention of it.
Where is the paint code on my G29? I have a G29 and also a G20 330e and there is a noticeable difference in colour when they are side by side. The Z is a more creamy white. Yet both are listed as Alpine White.
I can’t verify the actual white used on each without the paint code (s).
I noticed this morning whilst in Halfords they do an Alpine White 2 touch up. Next to their Alpine White, the creamy tone is very clear.
Many thanks.

Probably easiest to use a VIN decoder and find your build sheet. It will include the paint code.

Very many thanks for your help. The VIN decoder showed the paints as you suggested. Actually I found the zed to be Alpine White 3!
Regards
