Paint Codes!

I tried doing a search for how to find the paint code but I can't locate any info. Can someone direct me to where the paint code is inside the door on the sticker? So many letters and numbers.

The car is a 99 Chevy Z28 - thanks!

paintscratch.com may offer some help in finding what you need.

For instance, 1999 Camaro, black, 41/WA8555.

I think i found the paint code. It looks like it is an 81U. It was 2nd to last code on the list on the door jam and this website says thats what the code means. Which is bright red.

That WA number is what you will need to give to a body shop or paint store for them to mix it.
