Where is the paint code on a Kia?
Label on the driver's door jamb. Two or three characters, for example UD (Clear White), ABP (Aurora Black Pearl), KDG.
- Driver's door jamb (B-pillar)
Step by step
- Open the driver's door and read the label on the B-pillar.
- Look for
PAINTorEXT; the code follows it.
Kia and Hyundai share many codes but not always the same colour name.
No label?
Labels fade or go missing after repairs. A Kia dealer can read the original colour from the VIN, and the service booklet often lists it. If the car has been resprayed, have a painted part (the fuel filler flap is ideal) scanned at a paint shop.
