Default What color do I have?

The car I'm working on is a 1995 T/A vert., it's a dark green. It doesn't have a sticker in the door to find my codes either. I need to go get some paint mixed to do my jambs and inner fenders and have no idea what to get, help please.

Paint code #48, WA9806, PG 4457. WA 9806 is what would have been on your door for dark yellow/green poly(polo green metalic).

Thats the one. Remember that the new paint will be slightly darker than yours due to age. Have the shop scan your cars paint first to beter match it.
