Where to look on your Bentley
- Boot. Lift the boot floor and check around the spare wheel well.
- 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.
- Service book. Some cars have a copy of the label, or the colour written in, at the front of the service book.
What the code looks like
Bentley codes are a mix of letters and numbers, and bespoke colours are common.

Can't find the paint label?
- Call your local Bentley dealership, ask for the Parts department, and give them your registration or VIN. They can look up the factory colour code.
- Search by colour. If you know the colour name or roughly what colour it is, filter our Bentley 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.
What you’ll need
Once you have the code, the finish tells you what to order. Bentley colours fall into these groups:
Single-stage
Solid colours
One paint. It dries to a gloss finish, so no lacquer is needed.
8 Bentley colours
Two-stage
Metallic, pearl and most modern colours
Basecoat, then clear lacquer over the top.
94 Bentley colours
Three-stage
Pearl tri-coat colours
Basecoat, a pearl mid-coat, then clear lacquer. Order both paints together so they match.
