Default 28U RPO Code

I was going through my RPO Codes and I have a code 28U which is Primary Color Exterior Black Sapphire Metallic accourding to all the databases I have seen. But I don't see this being an option on the 1999 Firebirds AND I know my car is an original NMB car. Anybody else have this happen to them, where the RPO code doesnt match the car?

Yes, I bought a brand new car once that had the wrong SPID sticker (the one with all the RPOs). Upon further inspection, I realized that the VIN on this sticker didn't match my car. So yes, this does happen from time to time. Again, this was a car I bought brand new with 3 miles on it, so the mistake was made by GM.
