Default Paint code for 90

Hi guys. I'm finally getting the license plate cover for my Forced Air intake painted and I'm using a "new guy" to paint it - the other is just too far away.

Anyway, this guy asked me for the paint code so he could match it (funny, the other guy matched it without the paint code....hmmm).

Where can I find out the paint code for my 90 with original paint?

Anyone know what it is? (I understand the red paint code changed around 93 BTW)

On my 93 it is inside the center console glove box, along with the other option codes. It should be designated with a "U" and "L". With your car being all red the two should be the same number (no two tone). Hope this helps.

Thanks guys. :cheers:

I wasn't sure if the code under the console glove box door was the actual paint code or the GM option code for the paint. :bb

Thanks again. :)
