Where is the colour code on a BMW?
The colour code of a BMW can easily be found in two places:
- On a sticker on the suspension turret in the engine bay.
- Under the bonnet, often on the chassis or on a metal plate.
The colour code is usually a combination of numbers and letters, such as “300”, “668” or “B45”. This BMW colour number refers to the specific colour used by the factory, such as “Alpine White”, “Melbourne Red” or “Mineral Grey Metallic”.
Why the BMW colour number is important
Every BMW car has its own unique colour number, which is needed to mix the car paint to an exact colour match. Even colours that look identical at first glance can differ subtly depending on the year of manufacture or model.
With the correct BMW colour code, we ensure that your custom-made car paint matches the original factory colour 100%. This makes the paint ideal for repairing paint damage, scratches or respraying parts.
