Brilliant news, I think the comments by 'Oslo' speak volumes for the quality of this new paint compared to the older water based product.

My car was scheduled to be built 1st decade/Nov '03 & arrive at the dealer 1st decade Dec '03. It came in on Dec 23, '03 & it has a "C" in front of the paint code on the door sticker.

Where can I check the paint code for my car?

Im assuming it has the nano paint as it was built mid october 2003 but I would like to see it anyway. So where do I check for the paint code?
