My local NAPA can order me any color paint, but it doesnt get mixed on site so they dont have code books. I need to order a gallon of a bright red and bright white, both solid colors without metallic. Are there online sources of color codes for different manufacturers? There are a lot of new cars with nice colors that I would like to get the codes for also so I have them for other projects.

Theres a link on this site
www.autobodydepot.com (http://www.autobodydepot.com)

http://www.autocolorlibrary.com/scripts/depot.exe?pgm=aclgate.bbx&custnum=WEB-CUST++&password=&sesid=0902153918

Lists colors dating back to 20's.
Shows both the OE color code and PPG code if you go with PPG.
But the OE code will work for everything.

Basically its a photoscan of the PPG paint books...Eric
