paint code location
I can't seem to find the paint code number on my '87 coupe. On my SC it's on the inner driver's door jam but the Carrera has no numbers at all. My paint is Cassis Red, which I believe is a special order number. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Is there an options sticker on the underside of the front hood? It might be there.

No sticker on the underside except for which brake fluid to use and VIN.

Cassis Red Metallic paint code is 80D. You might look in the front trunk, under the carpeting along the passenger side cowl. That's where I found the paint code on my '85.

Yep, Steve's right, that's where mine is on my '83 SC.

Painting it yourself? It's a very transparent color. Doesnt cover well. Are you doing an all over? If so get sealer (value shade 5 dupont) and have it tinted red. The dupont color formula (h8880) shows its an optional but, not special order for 87-88. A dupont shop can mix it for you and I would bring a gas door or deck lid (if no wing)
Here it is: in different sizes- mix listed in grams first size is pint. 805J JET BLACK 65.0 130.0 260.1 390.1 520.1 811J MED ALUMINUM 120.5 240.9 482.0 722.9 963.8 862J TRANSP RED 165.9 331.7 663.5 995.2 1326.8 815J MULTIGRAALUM 209.2 418.3 836.7 1254.9 1673.1 858J DEEP MAROON 236.4 472.8 945.7 1418.4 1891.1 891J TRANSOX RED 240.3 480.6 961.4 1441.9 1922.4 62320F BINDER 460.3 920.7 1841.5 2762.1 3682.7 Good luck Harold

Look in the front trunk...passenger side front..along fender. Should be a small silver plaque with numerical paint code. May have to peel back some carpet to see this...
