Default Paint color

I am wondering what the color is of my Bonnie? The paint code is U529F. I searched here and googled it and didn't find anything.

BTW, the only person that I've seen on here with the color is in Tamara'* signature:

It'* the darker one... Not green, though. I'm not sure what color it is. It'* rare. Have only seen a few of them on the road since we bought it years ago. I'm ashamed to say it, but I have no pics of it.

Look on the RPO sticker for a code like 48U, 16U, etc. Those colors are defined in the RPO decoder located in techinfo.

U529F. I was with the autobody repairman when he read it off. It'* on the estimate too. :? He didn't know the techincal either, that'* why I posted.

I don't see that code in TechInfo. :?

My paint code is 48U as seen on the sticker. The RPO codes for paint begin with numbers so it will be located after all the codes with a letter in the first position.

Here are the RPO codes that begin with a number:

1SC
1SZ
56E
56I
6KJ
7KJ
76U
8RW
9RW

Does that help?
