Where is the paint code on a Nissan?
Vehicle information label on the driver's door jamb. Three characters, usually letters and digits: KAD (Gun Metallic), QAB (Pearl White), G41 (Super Black).
- Driver's door jamb (B-pillar)
- Radiator support (front panel)
Step by step
- Open the driver's door and read the label on the B-pillar; the code may be marked
COLORorPAINT. - On older models look under the bonnet, on the radiator core support or the firewall.
Infiniti uses the same code system.
No label?
Labels fade or go missing after repairs. A Nissan 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.
