And while we're at it, what is the paint code for the fiberglaas ground
effects kit? When I had my '88 painted, nobody could figure it out, so
they used the same silver as the body. Looks OK, but now that I have to
re-paint again (long story) I want to get it right.

Subject: Seeking paint code

My van is in the shop for paint.  It *was* painted, but the color is
wrong.  Shop used a spectometer, because they could not *find* the paint
code on the van.  It's an '87 and the paint is what we call "burgundy".
The color *REALLY* sucks and the shop owner recognizes this, and will
re-paint it.  Question is:  How can I find the proper paint code for the
van ?

It's the same color as Box Stevens' as shown here:
