It's on the vin plate on 800's along with the trim code, try passenger side, bottom of the B pillar.
Handy site for paint codes.

Have a look on the passenger side column when you open the door, the plate is on there. The bottom right code should be paint.

Hehe,
Why thankyou <blushes>
Yup - mines HAM, with a lot of tender loving care and a treatment of various Meguiars products. It was taken on the RoverTorque stand at Trax '04 - and in my opinion the paint looked better than the BRM I pwas parked next to!
Paint for the grille? Well I got Halfords to mix it (dont get the one off the shelf). Well, actually, I mixed it at work - I work at Halfords!
...however the entire front end has been resprayed by my local bodyshop man - so erm he got it realy.

I'll do better than that - pop down your local store, ask them to mix it up some HAM paint, and if you give them money - they'll do it :p

Haha, good answer!
I've ordered some from Paint4u.com
They were really helpfull, just gotta see ifit arrives!
I read another thread about laquer in areosols being sh1te, so they said they do paint with laquer already in it, seems good in theory!
ordered an can of this and a can of normal HAM just in case!
