you can

1. ebay for a vin on the color, decipher the vin,
2. look up acura 19xx model year paint options,
3. call PPG or dupont for a color match, etc

i personally would go with #2

When I bought my lexus is200 paint from napa I just went there and gave them the year make and model and they gave me a list of paints offerred. I think G-73 is what it was, they show u a piant sample and I said yeah for sure buy it

www.paintscratch.com i think something liek that. you can have any store that sells paint and supplies mix it up for you.

HONDA DOES NOT HAVE THE PAINT CODE IN THE VIN


all you need is a paint code to get some paint mixed up....

oh yeah and i hit up a NAPA paint store (was inside one of the local NAPA autoparts stores) and gave them my paint code: NH-0... clicked at the computer and then he said "Championship White?" mixed me a pint of paint and put it in some rattle cans for me too...

J-MAN
