where the bloody hell is my paint code located

hello i have brought myself a gta spoiler and want to paint it but can not find the paint code in the car, i also want to paint the number plate surround please HELP!!

on the 156 it is on the inside of the boot lid, so the 147 could be inside tailgate.

On the 156 it is located on the boot lid on the right hand side when you open it up.

I wouldn't always assume that getting that paint code will mean it'll match. Remember the paint currently on your car has had a few years to fade.
Are you doing it yourself or using a bodyshop? If the latter, a decent one should be able to colour match for you.

It's not likely to make that much difference.

I recently had the rear panel on a 6 year-old 147 painted (colour was Alfa Red) and the work wasn't really noticeable.

Ditto for the diffuser on my 4 year old GT.

i'm a volvo truck and bus mechanic and we have a good bodyshop and paint shop so i know that it will be a good match thanks for your worries tho
