Great find BTW

[ghostdog]

[saleeka]

Im assuming that you arent from North America- some of the names of the paint and the codes dont match up with the names and codes of the colors here in the states... not a bad thing, just makes proper ID for US cars a lil more tricky for instance, Super Red Clearcoat is called Rennisance Red here in the states...

[Pali_playa]

open ur driver door on ur celi and look at the botton right corner...ur paint code and other info should be there

[gtcelica94]

i mean the place where i got the codes from has all the us and the jap colors, im from ny by the way, on my 94 there is no paint code on the car

[celicarocker]

my bright iris pearl looks so pansy on that swatch... looks darker on the car...

[saleeka]

[madmods]

If Im not mistaken every car has their paint code on a sticker someplace in their car. In my other car its in the trunk. I will look at my manual.

[Celica_612]

I cant find my paint code on my car... i guess its because my driver side door got crash into and i got a new side door... and so now its not there... but if anybody can help me and tell me whats my paint code for my 95 Celica St.... i know its one of these red
Super Red 3E5
Red Pearl Clearcoat 3H4
Super Red Clearcoat 3L2
I need to paint my body kit and z3 fenders.... anybody know how much paint i need..... oh what else i need to buy..... i know i need to buy clearcoat is it one of those red clearcoat i need....?? ... anything else to get before i paint my kits.... im letting a friend do it and he say just buy tha stuffs..... what do i need to get to prevent rock chips.... thnx for tha help guys......

[bufferdan]

Celica 612: My car is a 94 ST and looks to be the same color. Paint code is 3L2 and its actually called renissance red not Super Red. You can go to the dealer and get the info. Thats where i got mine and some touchup paint and it is the exact color.

[SlowCelica94]

madmods, i think your sig might be a weeeeeeeeee bit too big

[Defgeph]

nice I'm black 202 Yes!

[Verde97]

Mine isn't on there.

What's that mean?

Edit: don't pay attention to my sig...it's more like pearl green than forest.

I'm thinking about painting mine the Laguna Seca blue stolen from the BMW m3

[Supersprynt]

STICKY THIS!
[right][snapback]120608[/snapback][/right]

Any reason why not?

[CoSo]

I'm not sure if that's the definitive list, it seems to be missing 9L5 and a few others.

[Supersprynt]

Doesnt mean it cant be stickied and then added to later.

[CoSo]

Oh I wasn't replying to you Super lol, yeah I reckon this should be stickied, wouldn't hurt having more information on the 6gc.

[right][snapback]157620[/snapback][/right]

yuck what was I thinking

[ILuvMyCelica95]

some more useful info
Toyota and Lexus color codes generally start with the prefix "C/TR" and the code will be three digits long, followed by more info.
Ex. CTR202/LA09. 202 will be the color code. Your location will always be in the drivers door jamb.









If your going to order paint i'd go with www.paintscratch.com because when you order if you give them your VIN #,which they ask for, they check to see if your car was repainted at any point and they also check to make sure you have the right paint code.

3L2 all the way! i agree, this should be a sticky. nice find there tina with the samples.

[ILuvMyCelica95]

^ thanks

yeah 3L2!

[97lestyousay]

Mine's not listed. 1997 6p3 Deep Jewel Green Pearl or Supra Green had it called both one by a paint store and one by a body shop. Anyone know why 2 names
for same paint code?

Edit:"Anyone know why 2 names for same paint code?" Dupont/ PPG never mind

[johny]

The first 3 characters on the bottom line of your VIN plate on the bulkhead in the engine bay give you your Toyota paintcode.

[Nigel]

This colour isnt on the list
1996 Dark Blue is colour code 8L2

i was about to be all like "wheres the Deep Jewel Green 6P3!?" but randy already took care of that
and, on a side note, im pretty sure that color is exclusive to 1997

[DeW_H0e_GT]

by any chance...does anyoen know where we can get some paint off of these paint codes???....

[97lestyousay]

A PPG paint store can make you a spray or a touchup bottle. ^^


Does anyone know how these break down? The first digit is the color class.
0 for white 1 for silver tones 2 for black 3 for red and so on. Does any one know what the other
2 are for or why the middle is somtimes a number or letter. Help me crack the code and I'll
buy you a slurpee.jk

[hurley97]

I believe the last two just tell how new or old the color is. http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/stepho/colour.htm

example:

601 is the oldest green color
then came 611, 614, 621, etc
then on to 6A1..., 6C3..., 6M1..., 6P3..., 6S9..., 6U0...

so 6P3 is a newer green than 6M1




...do I get a slurpee now?

Heck no. I have a coworker that has a 2002 Tundra with 6p2.
It is very close to 6p3 but not exactly. I dunno. It's almost like a graph
that show hue and saturation. red green blue.

[hurley97]

not necessarily the car itself, just the color.

92 Lexus ES 6P2


97 Camry 6P2

[rad1an7]

The color code under the hood on my car says - 752

94 celi hatch..



Looked in alot of stores tryin to see if they got some little touchups for this color but its not in stock I guess. Not sure where to find a paint place because everything is in japanese :\ and it wouldn't matter much anways because they never speak english.. ffs :\ (I live in okinawa)

[hurley97]

Baltic Blue Metallic (752)

but that doesn't really look like it, the stock color is usually a bit darker

[rad1an7]

Just found out that my color is custom.. Repainted before sold to me.

However, I dont know how to make or get this custom color.. any ideas?

[Veilside01]

Many thanks for this, mine had been painted over on the car.

756 Torquoise metallic clear coat

[BonzaiCelica]

okay two questions does a gallon of paint cover the whole body plus the engine bay???

and another thing, Im going to buy automotive touch up paint for my 99 Silver celica. http://www.automotivetouchup.com/choosecol...mp;model=Celica

Do I need to apply the clear coat after???

[CoreyST]

From what I found it takes about 2 gallons, maybe 3 to get a good coat on the car. It takes about 1 coat of primer to do a car though so I don't see why 1 gallon wouldn't cover a car. Maybe not the best but I don't see why not.

EDIT: Looked a tthe site too, it says basecoat only. So I would assume a clear is needed. Thus why they give you some to look at when you choose the paint.

[ro5ks]

can anyone show me the difference between purple opal and bright iris metallic. i cant seem to find the paint code on my car anywhere and this would be extremely helpful when i sand off the rust on the rocker.

[ILoveMySilly97]

Found a pretty cool link that shows color codes for all GEN Celicas. It shows pics as examples. Glad to find this because I'm planning on getting a full paint job in the near future.

And other Toyota/Scion/Lexus Cars/Trucks/SUVs. XD

[ashparky]

why does it say on the first post that a celica gt is a 2.2?

[richee3]

why does it say on the first post that a celica gt is a 2.2?

Thats because it is in the U.S. The ST has the 1.8 liter 7A-FE and the GT has the 2.2 liter 5S-FE.

[ashparky]

i never knew about these. how come i cant find them on ebay? even us ebay. my car is uk and has the 7afe and ive had 3sge and 3sgte before but never even knew the 5sfe celica existed
