Paul thanks, I'll talk with Mr. Jaeger. Stan is E9 not the paint code?

from the door sill:

Nachtblaumetallic
39C 9 3 MS

Shane

paintscratch.com lists 37w as:
Midnight Blue Pearl Clearcoat- 37W/F8

Night Blue Metallic Clearcoat- 39C

According to a very helpful 993 forums post by the_bg it is

39C Midnight Blue Metallic Porsche Factory made by Herberts MS (and Herberts is a DuPont name)

"xxx-y-z
xxx = paint code

y = factory
8 = ??? perhaps Karmann or other coach factory
9 = Porsche factory

z = paint supplier
1 is for Lesonal
2 is for Glasurit
3 is for Herberts
4 = ?"

Again ... I don't see what value all this paint code info has. I need midnight blue metallic parts from a 928, and there is only one kind of those.

Mrmerlin

looking at the different codes for midnight blue metallic there is 37W and 39C
it comes in regular and water based so the paint might be slightly off water base VS regular paint.

But yes if someone is looking for you then having the paint code should be part of their search so its
39C
