Default Paint Code Label

I must be overlooking the obvious but I was searching for the paint code label and didn't find one in the glove box, engine compartment, doors or other places I looked.

Our car is Blade Silver which carries a "GAN" code on the build sheet but I've always thought there was a numerical code as well. Thus far I've only found "WA-636R" and that was from another post regarding touch-up paint.

Can someone point me to where the label is located and if the WA number I have is correct? Thanks for your help.

The lable with the all the build codes in under the rear carpet all the way back. Odd place to put it. Used to be in the glove box.

Apparently they abandoned the prior years paint designations.

See post 2 here for the C7 codes:

Russ, thanks for the quick response. As you pointed out the label is at the right rear of the cargo compartment under the carpet. The color codes are at the bottom of the label.

Rick, thanks for the link to the paint code table.
