Question Paint Codes

Hey guys, here with another question. My car's color code is LM8U - Platinum Metallic Clearcoat, supposedly...well, the colors on the car (i started to wetsand today and found three) are gold, which you can see in the picture, red, and black...the last two i only found on the front right fender. So i'm wondering if you guys can post pics of your cars that have the paint code LM8U, and have the right color on them so I'll know what my car will look like, because as of now, i have no idea, i'm just trying to get this old paint off, it's SOOOO destroyed, it looks like a desert, seriously

Thanks
Ethan

BTW, heres the picture i mentioned

I'm with Dave on this. Your car has the authentic platinum metalic paint.

I had that color on one of my 924's and when is properly
wet sanded, clear coated, and polilshed, it looks great.
