    I looked on my service book and my paint code is: LZ5T

    However i can't find it in the code list posted in here.
    Also just been to halfrauds to see if they sold any. Didnt list it.....couldnt find it in their catalogue either.

    Can anyone tell me what it is?

    does it display in paint codes or do you look at manufactures?
    'cos if you was looking at vw you wouldn't find it- apparently it's an audi colour- Europa Blue Mica

    i'm pretty sure, but if it was a std vw colour, how come it hasnt got it's own colour code for situations like these?!
    never heard of a europa blue mk3, but i searched 3 times and this is what it cmame up with!

    hmmmm its annoying. I've got a grille to spray but not sure what colour i need! [:s]

    I tried ringing two different VW dealerships today and one said they could get the code for me doing a reg search but then hung up! and the other told me they couldnt!

    that code comes up as diamond black in Halfords but the VW
    one is black magic which seems much blacker and covers
    better...

    perhaps the code meant different things in different years?
    would be daft but wouldnt surprise me [:s]
