Where to look on your Peugeot
- Door jamb. Check the driver's door pillar and the edge of the door itself.
- Under the bonnet. On older models the label is near the top of a suspension turret or on the slam panel.
- 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
Peugeot codes are usually three or four letters, such as KWE (Pearl White), KTV (Perla Nera Black) or EWP (Banquise White). Older models may use a number instead.

Can't find the paint label?
- Call your local Peugeot 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 Peugeot 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. Peugeot colours fall into these groups:
Single-stage
Solid colours
One paint. It dries to a gloss finish, so no lacquer is needed.

Two-stage
Metallic, pearl and most modern colours
Basecoat, then clear lacquer over the top. Matt colours need a matt lacquer instead.
585 Peugeot colours
Three-stage
Pearl tri-coat colours
