Where to look on your Acura
- Door jamb. Open the driver's door and check the B-pillar, the upright between the front and rear doors, for a label or plate. If it's not there, try the passenger side.
What the code looks like
Acura is Honda's premium brand and uses Honda's codes, such as NH731P or B593M. The letters are the colour family (NH for blacks, whites and greys, R for reds, B for blues), and a P or M at the end means pearl or metallic.

Can't find the vehicle label?
- Acura isn't sold in the UK, but its cars share Honda's codes, so a Honda dealer's Parts department may be able to look up the colour from the VIN.
- Search by colour. If you know the colour name or roughly what colour it is, filter our Acura colour codes by colour and year to narrow it down.
Still stuck, or not sure the code matches a resprayed panel? Bring the fuel flap or a small part into a branch and we'll match it on the counter.

Once you have the code, the finish tells you what to order. Acura colours fall into these groups:
