    PPG Paint codes?

    Okay, so my older brother has this Peugot bike he bought a little while back that he is in the process of fixing up. He just sent it off to the paint shop, but they are requiring the PPG code for whatever color he wants it painted. Neither he, nor i know shit about paint, but do any of you know of a site that will show a bunch of different colors and codes? We've tried googling for a while now to no avail.

    If you want to figure out a PPG code based on a BMW, or about any other car, color you can try here.

        When I see that a company selling automotive parts can't even spell "automotive" in their web page header I have to wonder how fucked up their service will be. Hey, maybe it's just me though.

          Yeah that is kind of strange. Thanks for the link though, hopefully he will be able to find what he's looking for.

              IDK, but I just like that I can convert the factory paint codes to the PPG code :) Whether I buy it there or not I already know the PPG code. I might use dupont anyway for my 02.

                I think Rig was referring the to the original posters paint shop. I have never heard of having to find a paint code myself. I have obtained a paint code that I like to take it to the paint shop for reference so I don't there like a moron trying tell the guy "more green" :)

                  The paint shop is in Texas, and i have absolutely no idea why my brother sent it there. He just called me up last night and wanted to know how he could find out PPG codes online. I'm just a messenger.

                    They ate them, see spelling...:hitler:

                    This place is like catholic school, 2/3 of the students smoke weed on a daily basis, but the faculty seems to convince the outside world that drugs are just in the other schools, the resident pot dealer thinks he's cool because he has the originality to call anyone he doesn't like a homosexual, and most of the little children follow him like sheep, then there's the few with brains, you hardly ever hear from them, perhaps don't even know they exist, but they get all the sh!t done.
