Default Paint Question

Ok guys. Some Douche backed into me in a parking lot and took off. I got his plates, but the police said they came up "returned to registry". I've got a TINY little hole in my front right bumper and some scratching. I'm looking to touch it up and fix it myself. Any Suggestions??? Also, if anyone knows(Because i haven't had the time to look it up yet) how to find out the "Color Code" for my car i would appreciate it.

Thanks again everyone!
TOM

The color code is located on the underside of the trunk lid on the RPO code sheet. Just about any part store or repair shop can decode it into some touch up or spray bomb for ya.

Hey man, I feel for ya!!!

Here is a website that lists all the color codes. Find you year and color and then verify the number with those on your trunk lid. Although on my trunk lid, the color code was U41, on this chart, it was 41/WA8555 So look for the U and then the first two numbers and then match them to the chart. It works... but the original paint is not cheap... $24.95 for a small spray can... Quarts are a lot more.
