Im looking to give my lachs silver sport a few touch ups but dont know the paint code. Ill get some made up once i get the code.

I looked in Halfrauds but couldnt find LACHS silver,just other bmw silvers.

The paint code for your car should be on a label on one of the strut towers in the engine bay.

Your paint code is also on your vin plate eg. my diamond black code is 181/9 don't get paint from halfords go to your nearest autobody paint specialist and they make it up for you and put in aerosol can for about Ԛ£9
