Post help with paint/interior option codes

Could someone help me out? I've already done a search on Rennlist and also have looked all over the internet with no luck.

Paint code: L22E
Interior: LG

Many thanks!

Absolutely excellent post and maybe should form part of the FAQ section.

It may be that over time we can add to the list you have produced

My car is Aventura Green code L39S with Classic Grey TF. Is the colour code a European one rather than a US one? Over time I am sure a completely accurate guide can be built from the superb start made by you.

Tim, Good idea.

FAQ-meister Danny J, here's another one to add to the FAQ thread, but first:

Calling all Rennlisters:

While option codes are easy to find online, paint and interior codes are not. So let's make it easy.

The list of codes I started is clearly incomplete. Please take a look at your own p-car, find the interior and exterior codes from your trunk lid option sticker and see if it's on the list already. If not, please post what you have.

Also, more detail may be useful as well. For example, interior code VD and VN both say black, but VD is black full leather and VN is black partial leather.

If we all pitch in we'll have a very useful data listing with relatively little individual effort.

Many thanks for your reply. At least I've confirmed that my interior is cashmere beige, but I still don't know what exterior paint code L22E is ....Rainforest metallic green?? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

David,

again, less than 2 minutes of google searching shows:

L22E Forest Green

The web is a powerful tool, I encourage anyone to spend a bit of time learning how to use it.

Thanks Graham, do you know what the colors are called so we can associate them?

Calling DJF1,

OK, I updated the code listing above and the responses never really came, so this is ready to stick into your FAQ thread.

Thanks,
