How do you find the paint code for your Chevrolet
You will find your Chevrolet paint code on the service parts identification tag. The location of this will vary depending on whether you own a Corvette, a Cruze, or a Spark. Our list below includes the places you will most likely find your service tag and paint codes. To see it you need to look:
- On the driver’s side and passenger side door jamb
- In the glove box
- On the cowl
- On the inside of the trunk to the right or left
- Inside the trunk lid
You can also check the spare tire cover, and in the middle of the console. Generally, the tags are white, silver, or black. If you are having trouble finding the identification tag or it is not in any of the locations above, then give us a call.

What does your Chevrolet paint code mean?
Whether you drive a Suburban, a Silverado 1500, or a Blazer, the paint codes will bemmade up of numbers and letters. The paint codes are generally three digits in length.
Example: 636R
The above color code is from a Chevy Cruze 636R Switchblade Metallic Silver truck. Other examples include 50GAZ/WA8624 Olympic White and 41/WA8555K Black. Be are that Chevrolet uses different codes for the same color, so if you find multiple codes in your search online, this is why. For example, 51/GAO/WA316N all represent Gold Mist Metallic.
When you find your service parts identification sticker, you will be presented with a whole host of three-digit numbers. The Chevrolet paint code will usually be prefixed with “BC/CC U,” this stands for basecoat/ clearcoat and upper color but may also start with WA. However, when you select your paint online, you just need the code.
