Hi,

Just finished patching holes in my roof and its ready for some paint, but can't seem to find the color of my jeep anywhere.

Its a 1993 xj and its sort of a light gold.

Anyone know what the color might be or where I could find the paint code?

Doesn't have to be perfect as its on the roof but want to get it pretty close.

Ford Champagne Gold is the nearest thing i've found so far.

Thanks,

Matt.

 

In my '00 it is written on the white label on the driver's door jamb. Was curious googled around a little. Thinking this might be it: Light Champagne Metallic. Think that could be a gold? These might be the paint codes: AY96KV4, PV4

Found this:

 

I've got an '89 with light gold paint. I was having trouble finding paint that was "close enough" as well. After buying two different Duplicolor golds, I ended up finding a Rustoleum that is closer to my color than anything else I tried. I'll go find the can and post the color name a little later.

 

I use these folks for my spray paint. Very good match.

Edit: If you buy paint from these folks get their clear coat as well.

 

This is it. Champaigne Mist. Home Depot carries it.



I removed the trim from the bottom of my doors and sprayed from the bend in the sheet metal down. Close enough for me:

 

Yeah, I thought it might be on a label somewhere but I can't find anything- just a tire pressure thing. Great, that looks pretty close. Might give it a go.

Thanks

 

The Light Champagne metallic listed there looks like the one.

Thanks

 

Great, thanks for looking. I'd say mine is a little bit lighter/ silvery than that- but only just, so I guess it could be sun faded.

I'll try this and the Light champagne metallic and see which is the closest match.

Thanks again
Matt

 

Should be on the driver's door on the door jamb on the VIN label, and should be labeled as 'PAINT CODE', followed by a three-digit paint code, that is, unless your driver's door has been replaced, it may have the donor vehicle's VIN label.

 

You probably won't find the paint code as that was NOT a stock color in 1993. The 1993 colors were Black, Bright White, Poppy Red, Hunter Green Metallic, Electric Blue Metallic, Navajo Turquoise Metallic, Dark Cordovan Metallic, & Jewel Blue Metallic.
