Hi guys.
Some idiots had the idea that I didn't really need; A: My headunit (a cheap one at that), and B: My passenger-side window... So they broke the window and stole the headunit. Wankers.

Anyway, the door is pretty messed up, also as a result of the previous owners' parking skills, or lack thereof..

So I'm getting a new door, and it's virtually impossible to find one in Denmark that has the correct color..
So, where do I find the color-code sticker? I've looked in the engine compartment, and the trunk, but I simply can't seem to find it! Heeelp!

If anybody could supply a picture of said label, I'd be very happy... Sometimes it helps to know *what* you're looking for. Wink

Thanks in advance! Very Happy

Hi...
The sticker is on the hood, next to the stickers with the oil prescriptions...
It´s a grey sticker.
My car, when it was repainted, lost all this stickers, and Alfa doesn`t sell these anymore.
If your car lost them too, all i can say, is that the red is "ROSSO ALFA 130", but if your car is in a diferent color i will not be able to help.

Hope this helps

Hi.
On my first S3 the colour code was on the tailgate via a sticker and my present S3 has not got one anywhere Confused

If you know a good body shop they will match it using a chip....... thats what i did. The good thing about this method is that it allows for aged paint as apposed to getting the correct colour which could stand out.
