Default Need Help Fast For Color Codes

Hi All,

Hope someone can help me fast, my bumper is at the shop as we speak and they asked for the color code. I know it should be on the ID TAG in the left door jam.....but it isn`t. I have a 1998 Trans Am Ram Air 6S and the car is RED. Now which red is it,

Flame Red Clearcoat #WA8774
OR
Cayenne Red Metallic Clearcoat #WA122B (I think it`s this one)

Thanks for your help

Rudy

Well, my quick answer to you is, that if it is Flame Red it would be a solid color and Cayenne Red Metallic you would be able to see the metallics in it. Another option you have is to go to your nearest automotive paint supply store or a body shop and see if they can scan it. Or you could go online and check for color codes there.
